What is an Employer of Record (EOR)?

An Employer of Record (EOR) is a service provider that allows companies to legally hire and work with employees in foreign countries without establishing their own legal entity in that country. This is made possible through a legal arrangement where the EOR establishes its own legal entity in the country and hires employees on behalf of the client company. This arrangement offers a viable solution for companies that wish to expand their global reach without investing in setting up a legal entity in every country where they operate.

About the Role

Rippling is a leading Employer of Record (EOR) provider, enabling businesses to hire globally while ensuring compliance with local labor laws and regulations. We are building our EOR Equity Program function from the ground up and are looking for a Global Equity Specialist who is excited to roll up their sleeves and create end-to-end processes for equity administration. This role is hands-on and will require owning both strategic development and execution of workflows.

We need an expert who can interpret legal and tax guidance, communicate it clearly to clients and internal teams, and lead the development of equity-related processes from start to finish. This role also requires strong project management skills to create systems, hold stakeholders accountable, and collaborate with product and engineering teams to build seamless workflows for clients.

The ideal candidate will bring expertise in equity compensation, tax compliance, process improvement, and client support, with a focus on streamlining workflows and automating processes.

How This Role is Different

Unlike traditional equity advisory roles, this position focuses on ensuring compliance for equity issued to employees under the EOR model. Key distinctions include :

• Ensuring Compliance : Rippling and clients must meet all reporting, withholding, and filing requirements for equity events. This role does not involve creating or managing client equity plans.
• Advising Clients : Clients provide equity plan details, including grant values and types. The Specialist ensures local compliance steps are followed and communicates expectations clearly.
• Managing EOR-Specific Nuances : Employees are legally employed by Rippling, introducing unique compliance considerations, such as differing tax treatments compared to direct employment.

Your role will involve navigating these complexities and providing clear, actionable guidance to ensure compliance and smooth execution of equity programs within the EOR framework.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and implement end-to-end equity administration processes, including data collection, tax withholding, payroll reporting, and compliance filings.

Clearly communicate client responsibilities regarding local tax and regulatory compliance.

Shape the product roadmap on equity-related topics in partnership with the product and engineering teams (e.g. designing workflows that simplify equity compliance tasks for clients)

Track and document current capabilities, identifying areas requiring additional enablement or support.
