You’re energised by shaping fair, future‑proof rewards that help people do their best work. In this role, you’ll drive the design and delivery of ING’s performance and reward agenda - turning data into decisions, bringing clarity to complexity, and ensuring our policies are competitive, compliant, and easy to execute. If you thrive on impact, ownership, and collaboration across the business, this is your next step.

The team

You’ll be part of the CoE Performance and Reward team in Amsterdam: a group of 10 experienced professionals supporting Retail, Wholesale Banking, Tech, and Corporate Staff Departments. We combine expertise with pragmatism - partnering with stakeholders at all levels, staying close to market trends, and using technology and data to move from insight to action.
You’ll report to the Head of Performance & Reward Netherlands and work closely with our Global Performance & Reward colleagues onsite. It’s an international context where independence is trusted, collaboration is expected, and delivery matters.

In this position, you will lead and deliver core performance and reward activities that keep ING competitive and responsible.

• Advise on job grading, interchangeability assessments, and salary and variable remuneration structures.

• Manage cyclical compensation and performance management activities from planning to execution.

• Oversee and review variable remuneration plans and analyse reward and performance data to support decisions.

• Develop, implement, and improve policies, processes, and tools - ensuring they are current, competitive, compliant, and well understood across the organisation.

How to succeed
