About the role 

We are seeking an experienced Reward professional to lead the design, delivery and continuous improvement of WesCEF’s reward frameworks, programs and governance. This role provides expert leadership across compensation, incentives, benefits, job architecture and reward systems to ensure outcomes are market-aligned, equitable, compliant and clearly understood by leaders and team members

Reporting to the HR Digital & Reward Manager, you will lead annual remuneration cycles end-to-end, including salary reviews, short-term incentives and other variable pay programs.

You will also support the governance and application of WesCEF’s job architecture and job evaluation methodology (e.g. Korn Ferry / Hay), including job evaluation, grading and benchmarking activities to maintain internal equity and market alignment.

A key part of the role is leading reward-related system design and optimisation, including SuccessFactors Compensation and Variable Pay modules, and ensuring high standards of data integrity, audit readiness and compliance across reward data, processes, policies and controls.

You have demonstrated experience in job evaluation, market benchmarking and reward framework design, with a strong understanding of remuneration principles, pay equity and governance.
