ROLE FILLED - HIGH PERFORMANCE LEADER COMMENCED AFTER SUCCESSFUL EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT OFFER

Rethink, reshape, and share your considered opinions. Why do we do it this way?  What should we be exploring to be relevant for the future?  What do we need to do beyond gimmicks to be truly relevant to our work-forces, and desirable to target talent? How do we get the best value for our employees and our company on a finite budget? Why aren’t we trying “something new”?  All of this sums up the focus for this role!

We're seeking a transformation specialist, with advanced knowledge of Compensation and/or Benefits philosophies; with a flair for educating and guiding business leaders on reward decisions that will aid this multinational to continue to be an employer of choice for years to come. 

This organisation, with a globally known brand, has a suite of products that continue to expand, both organically and through acquisition. Their workforce is widely varied in their professional expertise, scattered literally around the world, and extremely diverse. 

Our business execs are acutely mindful that “one size fits all” comp programs do not encourage or reward the right behaviours. With a multi-generational workforce they are conscious that their comp programs and benefits plans are not necessarily desirable to all demographics. With a multinational workforce and a track record for international postings and secondments, they are mindful that fairness and market competitiveness is critical to keep their workforce mobile.  They are cognizant that job gradings and job families do not necessarily reflect or improve upon individual performance and contributions to company success; that traditional levers for performance management via reward tools are not the answer….the list goes on!

This person will need to guide key stakeholders on the best utilisation of budgets for annual incentives, LTIP, wellbeing, sign-on & retention bonuses….applying expert counsel on how to channel funds to be as effective as possible and stay competitive in the “war for talent”. This person will also be relied on to provide expert advice on creating consistency in utilising all elements of reward as a tool to improve on the cross-pollination of ideas, economies of scale, utilisation and transfer of talent.

This is a high profile role, reporting into one of our most respective Global VP’s of Total Reward, and liaising on a daily basis with regional and country management teams, reward peers in other regions, key HR executives, and the operational (shared services) teams who handle day to day compensation and benefits administration. Your project management and influencing skills will need to be exceptional as an expert consultant to so many stakeholders!  

We have some flex on the work base within the UK, although regular visits to London will be required. A valid UK work visa or citizenship will be essential. Base salary of circa £100,000 will be accompanied by a bonus and benefits package and there are genuine opportunities to progress within the global Reward function.

Experience in working across multiple countries will be ideal, and a first-hand understanding of complex, matrix organisations will be essential. This person should have a track record of partnering successfully with teams outside of their direct control. An advanced commercial acumen will be key (and will be tested - we expect this person to be able to provide P&L impact evidence measuring the success of their reward change initiatives).

Advanced written and verbal English will be essential; and this person will need to present credibly with gravitas to executive level stakeholders of multi-nationalities.

Interviews are being scheduled currently with an appetite for this HR leader to commence ideally within the coming weeks. Interested professionals can apply directly and confidentially via solutions@cartermorris.com quoting CMTS00279
