The Opportunity

VERSANT is seeking a Total Rewards Analyst to support the execution and ongoing administration of our Total Rewards programs. Our Total Rewards function brings together Compensation and Benefits to attract and inspire world-class creative and commercial talent who will shape VERSANT’s future. We design rewards that help employees build meaningful careers, share in our success, and grow with us.

Our approach connects achievement to impact. Through broad-based and executive compensation, financial wellbeing benefits, physical and health wellbeing benefits, recognition, and other rewards, we aim to give employees a meaningful stake in VERSANT’s success - through the impact they make, the recognition they receive, and the opportunities they have to grow.

As a Total Rewards Analyst, you’ll gain broad exposure across these core areas, including broad-based compensation, executive compensation, financial wellbeing benefits, and physical and health wellbeing benefits, while also supporting recognition, global mobility, employee perks, communications, and other Total Rewards initiatives.

In this role, you’ll help bring that philosophy to life through strong execution. You’ll support the delivery of Compensation, Benefits, recognition, mobility, and other Total Rewards programs while helping employees understand and engage with the rewards and resources available to them.

Surface recurring pain points or duplicative activities to the Sr. Manager, Total Rewards Operations & Strategy and help implement agreed improvements, including appropriate use of existing tools and technology.
• Support vendor, budget, and invoice administration: Track invoices, vendor expenses, contracts, and program costs; maintain organized records; monitor spend against budget; and support forecasting and periodic budget updates.
