Job Description
The role
We’re hiring a Compensation Director for a high-growth fintech client at an exciting stage of global expansion. With a strong foundation in North America and growing teams across EMEA and APAC, the company is scaling rapidly and evolving its compensation programs to support a diverse, international workforce.
In this role, you’ll lead the end-to-end design and execution of global compensation and equity strategies.
As part of the key leadership team, you’ll bring structure and scalability to the compensation function—building job architecture, implementing global salary bands, managing equity programs, and helping shape executive compensation plans.
To succeed, you’ll need to be both strategic and hands-on: deeply technical, analytically strong, and able to bring executive presence to high-impact conversations with senior leadership.
Looking for candidates with experience in SaaS technology companies, preferably those that have scaled through Series C or Series D funding stages.
Key skills required
- Proven experience owning and building compensation programs end-to-end
- Deep technical expertise in equity program design, salary structures, and job architecture
- Strong global compensation experience, particularly across APAC and EMEA
- Executive presence with the ability to lead strategic, data-driven conversations
- Experience in high-growth environments, ideally scaling from ~600 to 2000+ employees
- Collaborative and consultative approach with strong HR, TA, and business partnerships
- Advanced proficiency with compensation tools (Excel, Google Sheets, Pave, Radford)
Compensation: $180-250k base + Bonus + Equity + Benefits
Please note that this role is a remote opportunity.
