Why This Role is Worth Your Attention

If you're the person who secretly enjoys turning messy commission data into clean, accurate payouts-and can spot a formula error from a mile away-this one's for you.

Join a high-performing, financially strong, publicly traded organization ($16B+) in a role where your work directly impacts sales performance, earnings, and strategy. You'll partner with sharp leaders, build smarter compensation models, and help shape how success is rewarded across the business.

Oh-and you'll do it in a beautiful, modern office with genuinely kind and intelligent teammates.

• Be the go-to for commission accuracy and system integrity
• Influence leaders across Sales, Finance, and Strategy
• Work with leading tools like Xactly (or similar platforms)

What You'll Actually Do

• Design, model, and refine sales compensation and incentive plans
• Ensure timely, accurate commission payouts (no small task-and yes, it matters a lot)
• Analyze performance data to answer: Are our incentives driving the right behaviors?
• Build dashboards and reporting tools for visibility and ROI tracking
• Audit compensation data, troubleshoot discrepancies, and resolve issues proactively
• Partner with cross-functional teams to align compensation with business strategy
• Support system improvements and automation initiatives
• Translate complex compensation logic into clear, digestible communication

What You Bring to the Table

The Must-Haves:

• 4+ years in sales compensation, incentive analysis, or commission operations
• Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, advanced formulas-your playground)
• Experience with Xactly (strongly preferred) or similar tools (Anaplan, Varicent, CaptivateIQ, SAP Commissions, etc.)
• Ability to analyze data, identify trends, and influence decisions

Bonus Points If You Have:

• Experience with large-scale comp plan design and governance
• Strong stakeholder management skills
• Certified Sales Compensation Professional (CSCP)

Important note:

No degree required-your experience and impact matter more

What You're Like

• Naturally curious, you ask why , not just what
• Detail-oriented but still see the big picture
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity and solving complex problems
• Confident communicator who can partner with leadership

Perks & Benefits

• Hybrid flexibility (choose your WFH day-most people love Fridays)
• Competitive PTO (18 days)
• Strong medical, dental, and vision options
• 401(k) with generous match (100% on first 3%, 50% on next 2%)
