You will establish industry-leading global rewards and recognition practices; create innovative, scalable processes; and achieve optimal utilization of our Total Rewards budget and resources
Bring a strong external perspective by researching and applying best-in-class trends, benchmarks, and emerging technologies to continuously evolve our Total Rewards approach.
Increase the compensation literacy of our managers and Britelings at large to ensure they understand how we make decisions and have trust and confidence in our compensation approach.
