About the Role
We are seeking a highly analytical and strategic Compensation Consultant to provide specialist advisory services on complex compensation matters. Serving as a trusted advisor to business leaders and HR Business Partners (HRBPs), you will translate market and internal data into actionable recommendations across an assigned sector portfolio.

In this role, you will tackle high-impact compensation challenges, including escalated employment offers, pay compression, organizational restructures, and major compensation analysis projects.

• Develop ad-hoc financial and data analyses including cost-of-labor comparisons, new site modeling, budget impact, and headcount cost forecasting.
• Support compensation readiness for new facilities by coordinating job structures, salary ranges, and offer guidelines with Program teams.
• Participate actively in the annual compensation cycle, managing sector-specific calibration, exception processing, and manager support.

M&A Compensation Integration

• Support compensation due diligence for acquisitions within your assigned sector, analyzing pay structures, offer practices, and competitive positioning.
• Lead post-close harmonization efforts, including job mapping, pay alignment, and transition communications.

Stakeholder Partnership & Portfolio Management

• Serve as the primary compensation resource for business leaders, site General Managers, and HRBPs across assigned portfolios.
• Build strong, trusted relationships through proactive engagement and data-driven guidance.
• Coach HRBPs on compensation best practices and optimal usage of the Comp AI Tool.

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Finance, Economics, or a related field.
• 5 to 8 years of dedicated compensation experience, with a strong focus on market pricing, offer analysis, and internal consulting.
• Proven experience pricing complex offers involving executive compensation, equity-linked components, international transfers, or acquisition scenarios.
• Demonstrated experience in restructuring compensation analysis, including cost modeling, severance planning, and harmonization.
• High proficiency with compensation benchmarking tools, market survey data, and advanced Excel/analytics (scenario modeling and data visualization).
