INTRO / JOB SUMMARY
The Implementation Specialist is responsible for onboarding and configuring executive compensation plans for new and existing clients, ensuring accurate plan setup, clean data migration, and a smooth transition into live operations. This role serves as the primary implementation contact, partnering closely with client compensation, HR, payroll, tax, and finance stakeholders, as well as CSC service and delivery teams.

- Interpret plan rules, Trust Deeds, and governing documentation to configure plans correctly and consistently within the administration platform.
- Configure plan features such as vesting schedules, exercise rules, leaver treatments, tax handling, and participant communications.
- Validate system calculations, participant statements, and reporting outputs; investigate issues and drive resolution through to closure.
- Create and manage implementation plans, timelines, milestones, dependencies, and status reporting; proactively identify and mitigate risks and blockers.
- Support integrations and downstream readiness with payroll, HRIS, tax providers, and cap table tools where applicable.
- Ensure implementation alignment with relevant tax and regulatory requirements (including UK HMRC-approved plans and international equity considerations) and support initial reporting readiness (e.g., HMRC ERS and other compliance/financial reporting needs).
- Deliver client walkthroughs and training, produce clear handover documentation, and support early-life queries post go-live to reinforce adoption and operational confidence.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience implementing, onboarding, or administering executive compensation and equity plans (e.g., RSUs, stock options) in a financial services, professional services, or corporate environment.
- Working knowledge of equity and non-equity compensation plan mechanics, plan documentation, and operational workflows from setup through go-live.
- Demonstrated project management skills, including timeline management, stakeholder coordination, and risk/issue tracking.
- Strong data skills, including data validation, reconciliation, and migration; high attention to detail and comfort working with large datasets.
- Client-facing communication skills with the ability to explain technical setup decisions clearly to HR, payroll, tax, and finance audiences.
- Experience operating in a compliance-focused environment with strong documentation and governance habits.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience implementing UK tax-advantaged plans and related processes (e.g., EMI, CSOP, SIP) and familiarity with HMRC ERS reporting concepts.
- Experience with deferred compensation, carried interest, growth shares, or savings plans and related stakeholder requirements.
