Job DescriptionWe need a senior compensation leader who can design and execute equity, incentive, and global comp programs for a PE-backed, multi-country organization. You'll own everything from cap table management to international pay equity compliance, building scalable compensation infrastructure as we scale post-merger.
What You'll Do
Design and manage PE equity programs — RSUs, options, carry plans — from grant to liquidity event
Own the cap table end-to-end: grants, vesting schedules, equity tracking, 409A support, and board reporting
Build and maintain commission and bonus plans for sales, field services, and professional services teams across multiple business units
Ensure pay equity compliance across UK, Australia, Canada, and other international markets — reporting, audits, and remediation
Partner with Finance on comp planning, modeling, and EBITDA impact analysis
Lead annual compensation cycle: merit, promotion, market adjustments, and equity refresh planning
Run benchmarking and market analysis to keep comp programs competitive and cost-effective
Build compensation frameworks that scale as the business grows and integrates acquisitions
What You Bring
7+ years in compensation, with at least 3 years managing equity programs in PE-backed or venture-backed companies
Direct experience running a cap table — you've managed grants, vesting, and equity administration through a full cycle
Deep knowledge of international compensation compliance, especially pay equity regulations in UK, Australia, and Canada
Proven track record designing and managing commission plans for sales and field service organizations
Strong analytical skills — you model comp scenarios, forecast costs, and translate data into executive-ready recommendations
Experience with compensation tools like Radford, Carta, or similar platforms
Comfort operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments — you don't wait for perfect data to make sound decisions
Preferred
CCP, CEP, or similar compensation certification
Experience in vertical SaaS or multi-brand portfolio companies
Post-merger integration experience, especially harmonizing comp structures across acquisitions
Why Xplor
You'll build compensation infrastructure from the ground up in a high-growth, PE-backed environment where your work directly impacts business outcomes. This role reports to the CPO and gives you visibility across the entire organization — from field teams to the C-suite. If you want ownership, impact, and the chance to shape comp strategy at scale, this is it.
