Workday Compensation Lead
Location: Remote but will need to travel to UK offices
Salary: £65,000 - £75,000
Elevation HR are working with a growing professional services business to hire a Reward Systems & Process Lead to take ownership of how their reward and benefits processes actually run.
This isn’t a BAU role. You’ll be spotting what’s not working, cutting out the noise, and making processes run properly.
What you’ll be doing:
* Improving reward & benefits processes and the tech that supports them
* Getting the most out of Workday (Advanced Compensation) to drive better, simpler ways of working
* Working closely with stakeholders and external partners to turn requirements into practical system solutions
* Leading on testing, troubleshooting, and rolling out changes
* Supporting HR and Reward teams so they understand and use new processes properly
* Keeping an eye on performance and feedback to keep things moving forward
* Making sure everything lines up with policy and regulation
You’ll also:
* Continue to develop Workday Advanced Compensation, with a focus on automation and better use of data
* Partner with HR Analytics to build out compensation reporting
* Support the evolution of compensation structures in Workday
* Get involved in wider reward tech, including benefits platforms
* Keep process documentation clear, current, and actually useful
* Work alongside programme teams and external partners to deliver system improvements
What we’re looking for:
* Experience improving HR processes in a Reward & Benefits environment
* Strong working knowledge of Workday Advanced Compensation
* Someone who’s led process improvement in a complex business
* Comfortable working with stakeholders and translating technical detail into plain English
* Analytical, detail-focused, and proactive in solving problems
* Good understanding of governance, compliance, and process standards
* Exposure to automation, workflows, or digital transformation
If you like getting stuck into how things work, challenging them, and making real improvements that last, this is the kind of role where you’ll see the impact.
