Head of Reward
London | Hybrid (3 days onsite)
We’re partnering with a leading organisation to appoint a Head of Reward into a high-impact, standalone role.
This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong, hands-on reward professional to take full ownership of the reward agenda - shaping strategy while remaining close to delivery. You'll lead on pay, bonus, benefits and recognition, working closely with senior stakeholders to deliver a compelling and competitive reward proposition that supports attraction, retention and engagement.
The Role
- Own and deliver the end-to-end annual reward cycle, including salary reviews, bonus planning and market benchmarking.
- Lead the reward strategy across compensation, benefits and recognition, embedding best-practice frameworks across the organisation.
- Act as the custodian of job grading and evaluation methodologies.
- Produce RemCo papers, executive-level analysis and gender pay gap reporting.
- Manage key external providers, including pensions, benefits and benchmarking suppliers.
- Provide expert reward advice and guidance to HR colleagues and senior leaders.
- Balance strategic initiatives with operational delivery in a lean, agile environment.
