  • Deliver reward insights, analysis and projects, driving data-led decision making, continuous improvement and broader transformation initiatives.
  • Contribute to the overall reward strategy, bringing benefits expertise alongside growing compensation accountability, while ensuring robust governance, risk management and compliance.

What we're looking for

  • Proven Senior Reward professional (7–10+ years) with strong expertise across both benefits and compensation, ideally within a multi-country European environment.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence senior stakeholders and operate autonomously in complex, fast-paced organisations.

  • Strong commercial and analytical capability, with advanced Excel skills and experience managing external partners (e.g. brokers, vendors, survey providers).
  • Excellent communicator with sound judgement, able to translate complex reward concepts into clear, employee-centred solutions.
