Compensation Partner

At Pluralsight, we're closing the technology skills gap, and we're in a defining moment of transformation. With new leadership, a clear roadmap, and a focus on operational rigor, this is a great time to shape what's next.

As our Compensation Partner, you'll help design, launch, and run the global compensation programs that make Pluralsight a place where people want to grow and thrive. You'll bring together compensation strategy, creative problem-solving, and deep data analysis to build competitive rewards programs from the ground up and scale them around the world. You'll partner closely with HRIS, People Operations, Talent Acquisition, and HR business partners to deliver seamless, everyday compensation support. You'll have the autonomy to test new ideas, lead high-impact projects, and grow your expertise with a team that has your back.

What you'll do

• Design, launch, and evolve global compensation strategies, including base pay, short-term incentives, and recognition programs, that support business goals and stay competitive in the market.
• Lead the annual compensation review cycle for merit, promotions, and bonuses, guiding leaders and HR business partners on smart budget allocation and performance-based awards.
• Own our job architecture, from evaluating roles and defining levels to keeping job structures, profiles, and compensation data accurate in Workday through routine audits.
• Analyze market trends, manage salary survey submissions and vendor relationships, and team up with HRIS to build dashboards and market intelligence reports that guide pay decisions.
• Drive global compliance initiatives, including pay transparency and pay equity reporting, so our total rewards programs stay fair, competitive, and compliant.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to HR business partners and business leaders, offering creative compensation solutions and leading special projects across total rewards.

What you'll bring

• Strong analytical skills, with the ability to model and interpret data and turn it into clear, actionable insights
• Clear communication and presentation skills that make complex compensation topics easy for leaders and team members to understand
• Strong project management and organization skills to keep multiple programs and priorities on track
• A collaborative approach to working across global, cross-functional teams
• An agile, builder mindset and enthusiasm for working in a fast-paced People team
• Integrity and discretion when handling sensitive employee data

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Finance, Business, or a related field
• 5+ years of progressive experience in compensation analysis and program management
• Experience with compensation surveys and platforms such as Radford/McLagan, Mercer, Pave, or comparable tools
• Experience navigating global compliance requirements
• Advanced proficiency in Excel, Google Workspace, presentation tools, compensation platforms, and HRIS systems (Workday preferred)
• Travel: Travel expectations differ by role. Some quota-bearing sales positions involve limited travel, while others may involve travel of up to 40%, depending on business needs.
• This is a remote role; however, applicants located within 45 miles of our Westlake/Dallas, TX office should expect to work on-site Tuesday through Thursday, with remote flexibility on Mondays and Fridays. This approach enables more effective collaboration, quicker decision-making, and a stronger culture, while still providing flexibility.

Why you'll love working here

• We work in a blended environment that supports collaboration, flexibility, and connection across teams.
• We are mission-driven, shaping the future of tech upskilling and delivering impact that matters.
• We foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, where everyone can contribute and thrive.
