Responsibilities

Compensation Analysis & Mapping: Support acquisitions by partnering closely with our Global Total Rewards and Compensation teams to map and level acquired company roles to Salesforce’s job architecture. Conducting job evaluations, assessing the cost impact of integrating compensation, benefits, and stock programs, and consulting on proposed adjustments to align rewards programs using financial, statistical, and modeling analysis. As you grow in the role, you will take on the responsibility to independently oversee and lead this end-to-end workstream for smaller deals, depending on deal volume and complexity.

Proactively track the application and mitigation of decisions regarding how an acquired company's total rewards elements map—or deviate from—Salesforce's established programs. Apply risk assessment methods to identify and mitigate impacts, anticipate blockers, and connect the dots between overarching business strategies and specific project deliverables.
Stakeholder Enablement: Support the change readiness of HR teams and business leaders by sharing recommendations based on clear analytics and assumptions. Deliver solutions to complex compensation questions in ambiguous, unique circumstances.
