About The Position

The Total Rewards Analyst provides analytical and operational support for global and regional compensation, benefits, wellbeing, and recognition programs. The role translates workforce and market data into practical insights, supports recurring reward cycles and benefit renewals, maintains data governance, and helps ensure programs are compliant.

The analyst conducts compensation market pricing, survey matching, benchmarking, and job evaluation; supports annual compensation processes and employee pay actions; analyses benefit plans; maintains Total Rewards data across HRIS and vendor systems; and builds recurring and ad hoc reports and dashboards. The role coordinates vendor activity and program documentation, partners with HR, Talent Acquisition, Finance, Payroll, Legal, and local HR teams, and supports employee and manager communications.

The position monitors regulatory and internal policy requirements, maintains documentation and audit trails, escalates potential risks, and identifies opportunities to improve Total Rewards processes and employee experience. It requires appropriate confidentiality and data-protection practices when handling sensitive employee and compensation information. The role works independently within approved frameworks and escalates policy exceptions, compliance risks, significant cost impacts, and program-design decisions to Total Rewards leadership. It is remote in the US, with some states excluded, and may require additional availability during annual compensation cycles, enrollment periods, renewals, or critical implementations.
