About the role

  • One Team: We don't think of ourselves as "Acquisition Marketers", "Engineers", "Data Analysts", or "Product Managers".
  • Beyond denoting skill sets and areas of expertise, we don't think departments matter.
  • We consider the customer journey in all of our decisions: We know that no interaction exists in a silo and therefore understand how important every single one is.

Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end ownership of compensation review cycles, including determining timeline, materials to support compensation such as training and benchmarks, and partnering with HR Business Partners and senior leaders to drive equitable, competitive, and consistent pay decisions.
  • Seek better by continuously evaluating and refining compensation program design to develop scalable, data-informed approaches that evolve with our business.
  • Own our comprehensive benchmarking strategy, including job architecture, FLSA classifications, leveling, and market pricing, applying in-depth evaluation of variable factors to ensure competitive positioning across all roles.
  • Build trusted relationships with senior business leaders and key contacts across and beyond the People function, serving as a credible expert and strategic advisor on all things compensation.
  • Own compensation governance frameworks, establishing and managing audit processes to ensure consistency, compliance, and competitiveness, and escalate risks with well-reasoned recommended solutions.
  • Drive complex compensation projects from scoping through execution, for example: program redesigns and system implementations.
  • You're a natural connector - you actively build relationships with key stakeholders inside and outside your immediate function, and you bring people along with you in your work.
  • You're a skilled communicator and have the ability to absorb and distill complexity into simple terms to drive decision making.
  • Being included is just the beginning, it's about contributing your voice, growing through challenges, and building trust through shared goals.
  • To date, The Farmer's Dog has delivered over 1 billion meals nationwide and raised over $150M in funding to help us build a company as healthy as the dogs who are eating those meals.
