Global Reward Manager - 9 Months FTC

DR. MARTENS
London
Dr. Martens is a globally recognisable and culturally influential British brand, with 65 years of rich heritage, rooted in craftmanship. As brand custodians, we are lucky to work for a dynamic, thriving, and ethical business, with people from diverse backgrounds, who bring their true selves to work, and where anyone can grow their career. We are guided by three core values that are at the heart of everything we do: be yourself, act courageously, and show you care. They make us who we are and inspire us to push boundaries, embrace our individuality, and stand up for what's right. THE GIG We’re looking for a Reward Manager to join our team on a 9-month fixed-term contract and play a key role in shaping and delivering core reward activity across the business. This is a great opportunity for someone with strong technical expertise and a collaborative mindset to lead day-to-day reward operations while supporting the communication and embedding of our total reward approach. Reporting to the Senior Global Reward Manager, you’ll lead the delivery of core reward processes, contribute to the development and implementation of our reward framework, and act as a trusted partner to HR and business stakeholders. You’ll also coach and support our Junior Reward Analyst, helping to build reward capability and consistency across the team. This role is ideal for a well-rounded total reward professional who enjoys the variety the discipline offers –from providing on-the-spot advice to collaborating with stakeholders to shape and communicate compelling total reward solutions. Key responsibilities include:
  • Leading the delivery of core reward activity including pay and bonus reviews, benchmarking, job evaluation, benefits, and regulatory reporting
  • Supporting the development and implementation of reward structures, frameworks, and policies across compensation and benefits
  • Partnering with HR teams and business stakeholders to provide expert guidance and practical solutions on reward matters
  • Delivering data analysis, reporting, and insights to support decision-making and drive improvements in reward strategy
  • Coaching and mentoring junior members of the reward team, supporting their growth and ensuring high-quality delivery
THE STUFF THAT SETS YOU APART This role would suit a recent graduate, or an early-career professional looking to develop a career in Reward. You’ll need strong attention to detail, a logical and organised approach to tasks, and a willingness to get involved and learn. The key requirements for the successful candidate are:
  • Strong technical knowledge of compensation and benefits in the UK and Europe, including job evaluation, benchmarking, and regulatory reporting
  • Proven experience leading core reward activities in a complex or fast-paced environment, with the ability to navigate ambiguity
  • Analytical mindset, with strong MS Excel and PowerPoint skills; confident in analysing, interpreting, and presenting data clearly
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to build relationships and influence at all levels
  • Proactive and independent working style, with strong organisational skills and the ability to coach and support others effectively
At Dr. Martens, we live and breathe our 3 core values —they’re at the heart of who we are. They never stand alone but work together as a balancing act of rights and responsibilities to support how we work together at DMs. BE YOURSELF. ACT COURAGEOUSLY. SHOW YOU CARE.
