Senior Reward Analyst

About us: We do things differently around here. We built ClearBank on the belief that banking infrastructure would no longer slow down progress. Instead, it would be a catalyst that unlocks the potential to innovate. It would adapt to different needs so a new era in financial services could begin. We’re here to challenge the status quo in banking, are you?

What you can expect: ClearBank is a place where you can do things differently and challenge the status quo. We will give you a high level of autonomy and transparency, and we trust you to make the right decisions for the bank.

Your role will include:

• Owning the integrity, accuracy and consistency of reward data across compensation, incentives and equity, with clear controls, validation checks and audit trails;
• Producing high-quality reward analysis, models and dashboards that translate complex data into clear insights, recommendations and decision-ready outputs;
• Leading data analysis for annual and mid-year reward review processes, including data preparation, modelling, quality assurance, reconciliation and final output validation;
• Delivering robust market benchmarking and pay analysis, ensuring accurate job matching, comparison of internal and external data, and clear interpretation of findings;
• Monitoring reward outcomes through analysis of pay positioning, pay progression, incentive outcomes and equity data, identifying anomalies, risks and trends that require action;
• Maintaining reliable reward datasets and reporting processes, including data definitions, documentation, version control and reconciliation across source systems and third-party providers;
• Driving automation and continuous improvement in reward reporting and data processes, including embedding the Dayforce Compensation Module and reducing manual data handling;
• Partnering with People, Finance, Payroll and business stakeholders to resolve data issues, improve data quality and ensure reward information is complete, accurate and delivered to agreed timelines;
• Preparing accurate reward reporting, disclosures and governance materials for internal and external audiences, with rigorous checking to ensure outputs are consistent and decision-ready;
• Providing analytical support for complex reward projects, including incentive and equity programmes, levelling frameworks, reward governance improvements and changes to reward practices;
• Acting as a subject matter expert on reward data and analysis, sharing best practice and supporting colleagues to build capability in data accuracy, controls and insight generation.

What we’re looking for:

• Strong experience in reward analysis, compensation data or a related analytical role.
• Advanced analytical and numerical skills, with proven experience of working with large and complex datasets and translating analysis into practical recommendations.
• Exceptional attention to detail and a strong track record of producing accurate, controlled and well-documented data outputs.
• Advanced Excel capability, including complex formulas, data validation, reconciliation, modelling and the efficient analysis of large datasets.
• Experience of reward benchmarking, pay review modelling, incentive analysis and the interpretation of market data.
• A strong understanding of data governance principles, including data quality checks, audit trails, version control, confidentiality and the secure handling of sensitive employee information.
• Ability to identify data anomalies, investigate root causes and work across teams to resolve issues accurately and efficiently.
• Ability to distil complex reward and data findings into concise reports, clear visual outputs and decision-ready recommendations for senior stakeholders.
• Strong planning and delivery skills, with the ability to manage recurring reporting cycles and analytical projects in a fast-paced environment while maintaining accuracy under pressure.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the confidence to challenge data quality, explain analytical findings and promote consistent reward data practices across the People Team.

• You focus on solutions and positive outcomes, thinking radically and responsibly to find the best result for our customers, your colleagues and the bank;
• You actively seek feedback from others to drive your growth and development, always assuming positive intent from others and develop strong, trusting relationships with your colleagues and customers;
• You always strive for the highest quality, but you know that done is better than perfect; you welcome a challenge knowing that they learn as you go and iterate;
• ‘I’ before ’we’, isn’t in your vocabulary.
