Job description

Portfolio HR & Reward are delighted to be partnering with a highly successful, well-established organisation that continues to experience significant growth and transformation. As a result, they are now seeking an experienced Head of Reward to join their People leadership team.


This is a newly created, organically grown role that offers a rare opportunity to shape and develop the reward function, influence business-wide people strategy, and grow alongside an ambitious organisation with exciting plans for the future.


The Opportunity


Reporting directly to the People Director, the Head of Reward will lead the organisation's total reward strategy, ensuring pay, incentives and benefits support business performance, attract and retain top talent, and enhance the overall employee experience.


As the subject matter expert for Reward, you will take ownership of the full reward agenda, from salary frameworks and incentive schemes to benefits, governance and executive reporting. You'll work closely with senior stakeholders across People, Finance and Payroll, providing strategic insight and data-driven recommendations that influence key business decisions.


Key areas of responsibility include:


  • Leading the organisation's reward strategy, ensuring compensation, incentives and benefits align with business objectives and support talent attraction and retention.
  • Owning the annual reward cycle, including salary reviews, bonus and commission schemes, share plans and benefits renewals.
  • Developing and maintaining reward frameworks, benchmarking and governance processes to ensure fair, competitive and compliant reward practices.
  • Partnering with senior stakeholders across People, Finance and Payroll to provide reward insight, market intelligence and strategic recommendations.
  • Driving reward integration across acquisitions while leading key governance activities, including gender pay gap reporting, pay transparency initiatives and remuneration committee support.


Requirements


  • Extensive Reward leadership experience gained within a complex, fast-paced organisation.
  • Hands-on experience managing share schemes, bonus and commission structures, and employee benefits programmes.
  • Strong technical knowledge of UK reward legislation, governance and compliance requirements.


Why Apply?

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a growing organisation at an exciting stage of its journey. You'll have the autonomy to shape and evolve the reward function, work closely with senior leadership, and play a pivotal role in delivering a reward strategy that supports both business success and employee engagement.
