What you’ll be doing
You’ll support the Head of Reward in delivering Brit’s Group reward strategy, helping to shape fair, consistent and effective approaches to compensation, benefits and incentive arrangements. You’ll play a key role in our annual Total Compensation Review, manage salary benchmarking and market survey activity, and provide trusted reward advice to colleagues across HR, Finance and the wider business. You’ll also deputise for the Head of Reward when required, bringing strong technical judgement and operational leadership across reward, systems and reporting.
A major part of the role will be turning people data into clear, useful insight. You’ll lead senior management reporting and analysis across areas including pay positioning, internal equity, workforce trends, headcount and reward risk. You’ll take the lead on Pay Gap reporting and pay equity analysis, support budgeting and forecasting through workforce modelling, and help strengthen HR reporting standards, data definitions and governance.
You’ll act as product owner for our Human Capital Management system across reward, benefits, employee data, interfaces and reporting. Working with HR, Finance, IT, Payroll and external providers, you’ll identify and deliver system enhancements, improve data quality and maintain effective testing, controls, documentation and audit trails. You’ll also support the roadmap for reporting automation and AI-enabled process improvement, with a focus on reducing manual work and improving the experience for employees and stakeholders.
You’ll help oversee the delivery and continuous improvement of our global benefits and wellbeing programmes, including pensions, healthcare and insurance arrangements. Alongside this, you’ll support provider reviews, renewals and employee communications, using analysis to ensure our benefits remain competitive, relevant and cost effective.
We’re looking for someone with significant reward experience, advanced analytical capability and strong knowledge of compensation structures, benchmarking, incentive plans, annual reward cycles and HR systems. You’ll be comfortable managing and developing others, working with senior stakeholders and delivering accurately to tight deadlines.
