Job Description

How organisations reward their people has never been more important. Expectations around fairness, transparency, competitiveness and employee experience continue to evolve, creating both opportunity and complexity for organisations operating across multiple markets.

As Head of Remuneration Advisory, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping how SEEK approaches remuneration across APAC. This newly created leadership role has been established to strengthen strategic remuneration partnering across the business and elevate the impact of the Remuneration & Benefits team as a trusted advisor to leaders, HRBPs and the broader People & Culture function.

This role has been created to build stronger connections between remuneration, people strategy and business outcomes, making it one of the most visible and influential remuneration leadership opportunities within SEEK.

Why This Role?

  • Shape remuneration strategy across Australia, New Zealand and Asia
  • Partner directly with senior leaders and People & Culture stakeholders
  • Lead SEEK's approach to pay transparency and remuneration education
  • Influence how remuneration supports talent, performance and business outcomes
  • Help redefine Remuneration & Benefits from a specialist function to a strategic business partner

What You'll Be Doing

  • Provide strategic remuneration advice on complex reward decisions across APAC.
  • Lead remuneration benchmarking, market pricing and the evolution of remuneration frameworks.
  • Build trusted partnerships with HR Business Partners, People Leaders and senior stakeholders.
  • Develop SEEK's pay transparency strategy and remuneration education programs.
  • Lead and develop a high-performing remuneration advisory team.
  • Partner across Remuneration & Benefits, People & Culture and the business to deliver an integrated employee experience.
  • Identify opportunities to continually improve remuneration practices, governance and commercial outcomes.

Your influence will extend well beyond remuneration itself- helping shape how SEEK attracts, retains and rewards talent across diverse markets.

The Opportunity

For the right person, this role offers significant visibility, broad business exposure and the opportunity to become a key advisor to senior leaders across the organisation. The role has also been identified as a potential pathway to broader reward leadership opportunities over time.

You'll join at a pivotal time as the Remuneration & Benefits team evolves its operating model across APAC. Beyond providing expert advice, you'll influence frameworks, education, transparency and market positioning while helping strengthen SEEK's reputation as a great place to work.

This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of remuneration at SEEK.

Qualifications

What We're Looking For

We're looking for a strategic remuneration leader who combines deep technical expertise with exceptional business partnering and stakeholder influence.

You may bring:

  • Significant remuneration experience within a large, complex or ASX-listed organisation, with exposure across Australia and Asia-Pacific.
  • A track record of partnering with senior leaders to solve complex remuneration challenges and influence commercial people decisions.
  • Strong expertise in remuneration frameworks, market benchmarking, pay governance and market competitiveness.
  • Experience leading initiatives that strengthen pay transparency, manager capability and remuneration communication.
  • A collaborative leadership style with the ability to build trusted relationships across People & Culture, Finance and the broader business.
  • Commercial judgement, analytical capability and the confidence to translate complex remuneration concepts into practical business advice.
  • A passion for developing people, leading through influence and continually improving how remuneration supports organisational performance.

Most importantly, you'll enjoy partnering with people, solving complex reward challenges and helping organisations make thoughtful, commercially sound remuneration decisions.

If you're energised by strategic reward advisory, enjoy partnering with leaders and want to shape how remuneration supports people and business outcomes across APAC, we'd love to hear from you.
