Senior Compensation Partner

We’re seeking a Senior Compensation Partner to join a growing aerospace and defense organization during a critical stage of transformation. This role will lead compensation strategy and execution for a rapidly scaling workforce and play a key part in shaping our total rewards programs as we transition to Workday and prepare for significant organizational milestones.

What You’ll Do:

• Partner with HR and business leaders to design and deliver competitive compensation programs, including salary structures, incentive plans, and equity modeling.
• Conduct complex job pricing and market analysis across niche roles such as aerospace engineering and software.
• Support compensation-related projects tied to IPO readiness, retention strategies, and workforce expansion.
• Drive data analysis and reporting using tools like Power BI, Tableau, or similar platforms.
• Collaborate closely with HR Business Partners and executive compensation teams to ensure alignment across total rewards, benefits, and equity programs.

What We’re Looking For:

• 5–8 years of experience in compensation, with a strong foundation in job evaluation, pay modeling, and market pricing.
• Ability to navigate fast-moving, high-growth environments and work hands-on in a party-of-one capacity.
• Comfort with HR systems (Workday implementation experience a plus) and an aptitude for analytics and reporting tools.
• Strong business acumen and communication skills; able to engage leaders and explain complex compensation concepts.
• Aerospace, defense, or technology industry experience preferred.

This is an onsite role, five days a week, reporting to the Head of HR Operations. If you love numbers, thrive in dynamic environments, and want to help build the foundation for a growing organization, this is the opportunity for you.
