Remote Total Rewards Specialist – Make Compensation & Benefits Count
Let’s Talk About Why This Role Matters
You know how a good rewards program can make people feel valued, motivated, and ready to give their best? That’s exactly the magic you’ll be creating here. We’re not just talking about numbers in a spreadsheet—we’re talking about shaping an experience that makes our people say, "I’m glad I’m here."
We’re growing, and with growth comes the need to make sure everyone’s taken care of in a way that feels fair, competitive, and human. This is where you step in. Your work will guide how we design salaries, benefits, and perks that actually make a difference.
How Your Days Will Look
Picture this: You start the morning checking on salary benchmarks for a role we’re hiring. Maybe you spot a gap and suggest an adjustment so we stay competitive. Next, you hop into a quick video call with HR and Finance to fine-tune a benefits plan. By afternoon, you’re reviewing survey feedback from the team about wellness perks—turns out, folks really want a better fitness reimbursement option. You share the idea, and we make it happen.
Every day will feel a little different, but there’s a rhythm: research, connect, improve, repeat. And because we’re remote, you can do it all from your home office, coffee shop, or anywhere you work best.
Your Main Focus Areas
1. Building Rewards That Feel Right
We want our team to feel confident they’re being paid fairly. That means keeping a close eye on industry pay trends, benefits, and perks. You’ll balance competitiveness with budget realities, making sure our packages stand out for the right reasons.
2. Keeping Benefits Human
It’s not just about dental or PTO—it’s about creating benefits that fit real life. Think flexible work options, wellness programs, and the little extras that show we care.
3. Guiding Managers & Teams
Sometimes a manager isn’t sure how to handle a raise request. Or someone wants to know how their benefits compare to other companies. You’ll be the go-to person with answers that are clear, fair, and based on solid data.
4. Making Data Work for Us
Spreadsheets might not sound exciting, but they’re your secret weapon. You’ll use them to track costs, spot patterns, and help us make smart, informed decisions.
The Tools & Skills You’ll Use
You’ll bring together practical expertise and strong interpersonal abilities. From navigating salary benchmarking platforms to managing benefits systems and working your magic in Excel, you’ll also know how to break down complex details so they’re easy for everyone to understand.
A Few Challenges You Might Face (and How We Tackle Them)
- Remote work can feel disconnected sometimes. That’s why we keep in touch with weekly team huddles and casual coffee chats.
- Balancing fairness and budgets can be tricky. We solve it by being transparent and using real market data.
- Benefits aren’t one-size-fits-all. We listen, adjust, and stay flexible.
Who You’ll Work With
You’ll be part of our People & Culture team, but your work touches Finance, Leadership, and every employee here. That means you’ll be chatting with everyone from new hires to senior managers—and you’ll get to see the impact of your work up close.
What Success Looks Like Here
If six months from now, our people feel their pay and perks are not just competitive but thoughtful, you’ve nailed it. If managers have quick, confident answers about rewards policies, you’re doing great. And if our employee satisfaction scores climb? That’s the win we’re all chasing.
What We’re Hoping You Bring
- Experience with compensation & benefits programs (ideally in a remote or global setting)
- Comfort with data and analytics (you don’t need to be a data scientist, just fluent in Excel and salary research tools)
- Clear, friendly communication skills
- The ability to think strategically and act quickly
Your Work Environment
Here’s the good part—this role is fully remote. You set up your workspace the way you like it. We trust you to manage your time, hit your deadlines, and keep in touch.
Real-Life Moments You Might Enjoy
- Reworking a parental leave policy after a teammate shares their personal experience
- Negotiating a better rate with a health insurance provider because you spotted a better deal
- Rolling out a mental health benefit and hearing from someone that it made a real difference
Your Salary & Perks
We’re offering $100,500 per year for this role, along with a benefits package designed to support your whole self—not just your work life. That includes healthcare, generous time off, wellness programs, and space for professional development.
Why People Love Working Here
- We celebrate small wins, not just big milestones.
- We believe feedback is a gift (and we actually use it).
- We value flexibility—life happens, and we’re cool with that.
- We’re building something meaningful, and you get to shape it.
Your First Month Here
Week one, you’ll get to know the team, learn our systems, and dive into current reward structures. By week two, you’re already suggesting tweaks. By the end of the month, you’ve led your first benefits review and have a list of ideas for the next quarter.
Ready to Make an Impact?
This isn’t just a desk job. The work you do here will shape how our people feel every single day. If you’re ready to bring your expertise, creativity, and a genuine care for people, we can’t wait to see what you’ll build.
One Last Thing
