Compensation Manager

What You'll Own

• Lead the annual review of compensation bands, benchmarking against market data (Radford/Pave) and providing recommendations to the business.
• Own and drive the annual Radford compensation survey submission and data output analysis.
• Own compensation planning cycles end-to-end, including bonus and merit cycles, using Pave and/or Workday.
• Partner with Recruiting/PBPs to deliver consistent, competitive offer recommendations and serve as a compensation advisor throughout the candidate lifecycle.
• Support global expansion efforts by establishing competitive, compliant compensation structures across all jurisdictions in which we operate.
• Collaborate with the HRIS team to migrate compensation data from spreadsheets into Workday, improving data integrity and accessibility.

What We're Looking For

• Demonstrated experience in compensation, total rewards, or a related HR function — ideally at a high-growth tech startup.
• Strong analytical skills; comfortable working with large data sets, building models in Excel/Sheets, and translating data into clear recommendations.
• Experience working with compensation survey data (Radford/Pave strongly preferred).
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills — able to present to and influence senior leadership.
• Comfort operating as both strategist and executor; willing to roll up your sleeves and get things done without a large team beneath you.
• Experience with global compensation, including working in or alongside an EOR (e.g., Remote, Deel) is a strong plus.
• Familiarity with Pave and/or Workday is a strong plus.
• Tech startup experience preferred — you're comfortable with ambiguity, fast pace, and evolving priorities.
