Job summary

Legora AB is hiring a Compensation Analyst to anchor benchmarking, equity administration, and comp-cycle execution as we scale globally from our New York office.

This hands-on role is ideal for someone early in their compensation career who wants ownership, process design, and the opportunity to influence compensation strategy across multiple markets.

Qualifications

• Familiarity with compensation benchmarking platforms (Radford, Pave, Ravio) and market pricing methodology

• Clear written and verbal communicator, able to explain compensation concepts to non-comp audiences with confidence
• High attention to detail and a strong sense of discretion working with sensitive pay data
• Comfort operating in a fast-paced, still-forming environment where the processes themselves are still being built
• Experience supporting a global or multi-country workforce is a plus

Responsibilities

• Own day-to-day equity administration, including grant tracking, vesting schedules, grant data hygiene, and employee-facing equity questions
• Conduct market benchmarking and job matching, keeping pay data current as new roles and markets come online
• Build and maintain compensation models, dashboards, and reporting that turn raw data into clear recommendations for the Director and VP
• Support the end-to-end comp cycle, including merit, promotions, and off-cycle adjustments, owning data prep, modeling, and quality checks
• Run pay equity, range penetration, and compression analyses to flag issues before they become problems
• Maintain compensation guidelines, pay ranges, and job architecture data, ensuring everything stays accurate as the org evolves
• Partner with People Business Partners and Talent Acquisition on offer construction, leveling, and internal equity questions
• Help build and document scalable comp processes and tools as Legora's headcount and global footprint grow
