Are you passionate about helping Life Sciences organisations make better compensation decisions?
Do you enjoy uncovering growth opportunities, building trusted client relationships and turning market intelligence into commercial success?
At Aon, we're looking for a commercially minded leader to grow our Life Sciences Reward Consulting & Insights practice. Working with senior Reward, HR and business leaders, you'll help clients solve complex compensation challenges while identifying opportunities to expand relationships, win new business and deliver greater value.
Using market-leading compensation data, consulting expertise and deep sector knowledge, you'll act as a trusted adviser to some of the UK's most innovative pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and healthtech organisations. You'll lead commercially focused conversations, shape client strategy and help organisations make confident decisions about pay, talent and workforce challenges.
This is more than a consulting role. It's an opportunity to influence the future direction of our Life Sciences practice, drive market growth and build lasting partnerships with industry-leading organisations.
If you're equally comfortable discussing compensation strategy in the boardroom, identifying new commercial opportunities and helping clients navigate complex workforce decisions, we'd love to hear from you.
The role can be based anywhere in the UK with the flexibility of working remotely and from one of our UK offices.
Aon is in the business of better decisions
