Working as part of a specialist team, you will support the governance and oversight of compensation practices across EMEA, ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory requirements while partnering with stakeholders across HR, Risk, Compliance, Legal and Audit functions.

If you're a compensation or reward professional looking to build a career in regulatory remuneration, this role offers a unique opportunity to combine analytical excellence, regulatory exposure and strategic stakeholder engagement within a global organisation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage and support Material Risk Taker (MRT) identification processes across EMEA.
  • Contribute to regulatory remuneration reporting, submissions and disclosures, including data validation and analysis.
  • Support year-end compensation activities, including deferrals, regulatory calculations, controls and governance reviews.
  • Prepare materials and analysis for remuneration committees and governance forums.
  • Partner with stakeholders across HR, Legal, Risk, Compliance and Audit to ensure adherence to compensation regulations.
  • Assist with compensation-related projects and automation initiatives designed to enhance efficiency and controls.
  • Maintain robust documentation, governance processes and regulatory assessments.
  • Monitor regulatory developments and help assess their impact on compensation programmes and practices.

Requirements

  • Experience within Compensation, Reward or Regulatory Remuneration in a large financial services or multinational environment.
  • Strong analytical skills and exceptional attention to detail.
  • Advanced Excel capabilities and confidence working with large, complex datasets.
  • Demonstrated interest in UK and EU remuneration regulations and governance frameworks.
  • Excellent organisational and project management skills.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to present complex information clearly and concisely.
  • A collaborative approach and experience building relationships across multiple stakeholder groups.
  • Previous experience of regulatory compensation or remuneration regulation is beneficial but not essential.
