About the Role

I’m partnering with a leading professional services organisation to recruit a highly capable Reward & Benefits Advisor to join their London‑based HR team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys analytical work, thrives in a detail‑oriented environment, and wants to play a pivotal role in shaping fair, consistent, and well‑governed reward and benefits decisions.

At the centre of this role is one key purpose:

To act as the analytical and operational engine behind the UK reward and benefits agenda.

The successful candidate will support high‑stakes annual cycles such as salary review and bonus, deliver critical market insights, and serve as a trusted point of coordination across HR, the business, and external providers.

If you’re looking to step into a role with real impact and build your expertise across both reward and benefits, this is an excellent next move.

Key Responsibilities

Reward

• Support delivery of the annual UK salary and bonus review cycles, including modelling, system testing, data accuracy, and insight generation.
• Prepare salary survey submissions and provide ongoing benchmarking and market analysis.
• Work closely with HR Business Partners and managers to guide pay‑related decisions.
• Lead elements of the pay review process for designated populations.
• Conduct job evaluations for both new and evolving roles.
• Oversee the day‑to‑day running of the recognition programme.
• Respond to compensation queries from HR colleagues.
• Contribute to ad hoc reward analysis and project work as required.

Benefits

• Act as an escalation point for benefits queries for both employees and the wider HR team.
• Manage relationships with external benefits providers, brokers, insurers, and platform suppliers.
• Support benefits renewals, rate discussions, and coverage changes.
• Assist with benefits platform design, updates, and testing.
• Support both UK and international benefits, including health and life insurance where needed.
• Handle partner benefit selections and queries.
• Contribute to wellbeing initiatives and benefits communications.
• Work with HR Operations and Finance to ensure smooth invoicing and administrative accuracy.
• Participate in a wide range of benefits‑related projects and ongoing improvements.

What We’re Looking For

• Ideally 2+ years’ Reward & Benefits experience (professional services experience is advantageous but not essential).
• Strong analytical capability, with confidence working with spreadsheets and complex datasets.
• Familiarity with benchmarking and job evaluation methodologies (WTW GGS experience desirable).
• A logical, data‑driven approach to problem solving.
• Strong relationship‑building and communication skills.
• Good understanding of employee benefits schemes and structures.
• A proactive, curious mindset – especially around new technologies and AI.
• Workday experience beneficial but not required.

What Success Looks Like in This Role

The client is seeking someone who:

• Takes pride in producing accurate, high‑quality work.
• Communicates clearly and builds strong, trusting relationships.
• Brings structure and calm to complex processes.
• Enjoys being a go‑to person for reward and benefits queries.
• Thrives on continuous learning and operational excellence.

About the Culture

Our client is deeply committed to fostering a respectful, inclusive, and supportive environment where people from all backgrounds can thrive. Their values – Human, Bold, Outstanding – are reflected in how they work, develop their people, and make decisions. This role offers the chance to join a forward‑thinking HR team that embraces innovation and continuous improvement.
