Reward Partner (London)

️ Office requirement : Minimum 2 days a week in the office

At GWI we’re always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we’re looking for a Reward Partner to play a key role in our People & Culture team in London. If that’s you, and making a difference gets you out of bed in the morning, keep reading. It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.

Sounds great, what will I be doing?

As our Reward Partner you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of reward at GWI. While we have built solid foundations through pay benchmarking and benefits administration, we are looking for someone who can take the function further: from operational to strategic.

You\’ll report into our Chief People Officer, and work closely with People Business Partners, People Operations, Talent Acquisition and Finance influencing reward decisions at every level of the organization.

It’s also fun; shaking things up is what working for a growing company is all about. So you’ll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous change, and working in a high-tempo environment as we grow.

What do I need to bring with me?

You’ll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don\’t have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you’re willing to learn. Here’s what the team will be looking for:

Global reward expertise – Proven ability to navigate diverse market regulations and local nuances while building globally consistent, scalable reward frameworks that support rapid international growth.
Strong understanding of equity and long-term incentive plans , including modelling and scenario planning to support compensation strategy in VC-backed and pre-IPO environments.
Storytelling and influencing – You can take complex data and trends and turn them into clear, compelling visual insights that shape leadership decisions.

Data fluency with advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills , and hands-on experience with compensation platforms (e.g., Pave, Willis Towers Watson, Radford, Payscale) and people analytics tools (e.g., Workday, HiBob, Tableau, Looker) to extract, analyse and visualise meaningful insights.

Experience building future-ready reward solutions , using automation, AI-driven benchmarking, and integrated tooling to streamline comp cycles, enable faster decisions, and keep pace with the evolving talent market.

Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect (to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, exemplified by our leadership team, and they’re a big part of what we’re looking for in you.

You’ll do the sort of work that got you excited about your career in the first place – not as a cog in a machine, but as an individual whose contribution matters. So gigantic job satisfaction comes as standard, but it’s only part of the package. You’ll also get:
