Role Summary

You will own the strategy, design and evolution of our reward and performance framework, ensuring that how we reward, incentivise and manage performance directly supports business growth and value creation.

This is a commercially focused role spanning Executive Compensation, LTIP, Performance Management, Sales Incentive Plans, Compensation, Benefits and Wellbeing.

The role will partner closely with the CPCO, Executive Leadership and Finance to build scalable, data-driven programmes that attract and retain exceptional talent, differentiate high performance and align employee outcomes with company performance.

Success will be measured not simply by the delivery of programmes, but by their impact on performance, talent outcomes, organisational effectiveness and business results.

Process and system ownership

- Own the annual merit and variable compensation cycle across the organisation.
- Ensure salary increases and variable compensation meaningfully differentiate performance and contribution.
- Partner with Finance on modelling, budgeting and scenario planning.
- Evolve total rewards systems, processes and frameworks leveraging the cutting edge technology (AI enablement) to create the enhanced employee experience and higher business impact

ensuring they remain competitive, relevant and cost-effective.

Analytics, Governance & Decision Support
