Role Overview

This position serves as the analytical bridge between:

  • Our India-based IT/data engineering team (who pull raw compensation datasets)
  • U.S.-based stakeholders and end clients

Your primary responsibility is data validation, interpretation, reconciliation, and cleansing — not raw extraction.

We are looking for someone who deeply understands CEO and NEO compensation structures and can confidently interpret complex proxy disclosures.

Core Responsibilities

1. Executive Compensation Expertise

  • Analyze CEO, CFO, and Named Executive Officer (NEO) compensation
  • Interpret:
  • Base salary
  • Annual incentives
  • Long-term incentive plans (LTI)
  • RSUs / PSUs
  • Stock options
  • Performance-based awards
  • Understand grant-date fair value, vesting schedules, performance metrics, and change-in-control provisions
  • Recognize cross-industry compensation benchmarking trends

2. Proxy Statement & Footnote Analysis

  • Conduct deep reviews of DEF 14A filings
  • Interpret Compensation Discussion & Analysis (CD&A)
  • Validate data from:
  • Summary Compensation Tables
  • Grants of Plan-Based Awards
  • Outstanding Equity Awards tables
  • Identify inconsistencies or missing disclosures

3. Data Validation & Cleansing (Primary Function)

  • Validate raw datasets pulled by the IT Lead
  • Identify:
  • Missing fields
  • Incorrect classifications (e.g., RSU vs PSU)
  • Misvalued equity grants
  • Incorrect vesting interpretations
  • Structural inconsistencies or duplicates
  • Reconcile data directly against proxy source documents
  • Work closely with IT to refine extraction logic and improve parsing accuracy

4. Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Translate executive compensation concepts into structured data rules for IT
  • Align technical output with U.S. stakeholder requirements
  • Provide analytical reasoning behind corrections
  • Communicate clearly and confidently with U.S. clients

Required Background

  • 6–10+ years in executive compensation, total rewards, or compensation consulting
  • Strong experience analyzing U.S. public company proxy statements
  • Deep knowledge of CEO & NEO compensation structures
  • Advanced Excel skills
  • Strong analytical writing and communication skills
  • Ability to work directly with U.S.-based stakeholders
