Responsibilities:
- Conduct analysis and create high-level summaries to support leadership presentations and decision-making.
- Research and analyze market data trends that align external benchmarks with internal positions, evaluate internal equity, external competitiveness, business conditions, legal requirements, and economic impact to make sound recommendations and resolve compensation concerns.
- Provide analytical support to identify gaps and inefficiencies in programs and processes for base and/or incentive compensation initiatives.
- Conduct individual and group salary analysis using market-based evaluation methods and prepare recommendations to maintain a competitive position within labor markets.
- Audit compensation processes and programs and provide recommendations to ensure compliance with internal guidelines and government regulations.
- Support job-building and job-maintenance activities, including reviewing and updating job descriptions and ensuring jobs are appropriately classified and aligned.
