These areas include, but are not limited to, program feedback from the business, the annual compensation calendar, HR readiness, the HR Operating Model, and compensation tools.
  • Provide in-depth knowledge and experience advising on Compensation-related topics and applying new points of view and approaches to drive a premium employee experience and seek sophisticated challenges.
  • Partner closely with business-facing HRBPs, senior business leaders, Talent Acquisition, Talent Management, and People Solutions.
  • Monitor and analyze key metrics and trends related to benefits utilization and cost.
  • Drive benefit renewals across Asia Pacific and Greater China markets, making recommendations for program design changes and cost containment strategies.
  • Deliver roadmaps for each country, leveraging internal and external data to build a long-term strategy on a rolling multi-year basis.
