Role
Who you are
- 5-7 years of compensation experience, including designing, job architecture, salary structures and incentive plans
- A track record of building or overhauling a pay-for-performance program, and of showing its impact on retention, performance or business results
- Experience in a high-growth or private-equity-backed company, where you moved fast with imperfect data
- Strong business acumen: you can talk P&L and growth with Finance and business leaders, and you hold your own with executives
- A hands-on builder who is as comfortable in the spreadsheet as in the boardroom
- Strong AI fluency: you use AI and automation to speed up analysis, modeling and build comp workflows and tools
- Advanced Excel and Google Sheets skills; HRIS experience (Rippling preferred)
- Bachelor's degree in business, finance, HR or a related field, or equivalent experience; CCP a plus
- Deep expertise in compensation design: job leveling, market pricing, salary structures, merit and promotion budgeting, bonus, commission and equity
- Working knowledge of federal and state pay transparency laws, FLSA and pay equity analysis
- Strong analytical and modeling skills, with attention to detail and accuracy at speed
- Skilled educator and communicator who can make complex comp concepts simple for managers and employees, through training, toolkits and clear guidance
- Comfortable with ambiguity, managing several projects at once, and building programs from the ground up
- Builds trust and influence across all levels without formal authority
What the job involves
- Evaluate and rebuild our compensation structure. Assess Evolve's current job architecture, pay grades, salary ranges and leveling. Then redesign them for internal equity, market competitiveness and the way we want to grow
- Build a pay-for-performance strategy. Design how performance outcomes translate into merit, promotion, bonus and equity decisions
- Connect comp to talent and performance. Partner with Talent Management to integrate compensation into our performance framework (EPIC) and calibration, and into how we reward leverage, ownership and AI fluency
- Tie programs to business goals. Work with Finance and business leaders so incentive plans (annual bonus and commission) reinforce the outcomes that matter most to our customers and the business
- Own the comp cycles. Design and run annual merit, promotion and bonus cycles end to end: budget modeling, guidelines, manager and leadership tools
- Build comp literacy across Evolve. Create manager and employee education on how pay works at Evolve: our philosophy, how ranges and levels work, and how performance drives pay. Equip managers to have confident, transparent pay conversations, and make sure employees understand their total compensation
- Advise on real-time decisions. Be the go-to expert for People Business Partners, Talent Acquisition and leaders on offers, promotions, transfers and off-cycle adjustments
- Keep us compliant. Monitor pay transparency, FLSA and pay equity requirements, and run regular audits
- Measure and improve. Use data and market insights to show whether our programs drive the results we want, and bring forward recommendations. Build AI and automation into comp analysis and workflows
Our take
Evolve is a hospitality company offering 5-star experiences to rental customers in highly vetted properties. It takes a direct hand in guest experience management, from preparing and vetting properties, to fine-tuning stays in response to client feedback.
Launched in 2011, Evolve came to the game shortly after Airbnb. However, where Airbnb makes vacation rental possible for everyone, Evolve aims to make it easy. This is a difference it has made great pains to stress, perhaps a hangover from the misconceptions it faced from VCs when raising initial funds.
Evolve serves thousands of homeowners, with over 10 million guest customers. As home rentals continue to be popular, and with the market in need of quality control, Evolve’s 5-star focus enables it to stand out and secure a good position for the future.
