Performance & Reward Manager

SQC exists to push humanity’s technological frontier further than it has ever gone. The work we do demands excellence, and
your role is to make sure our performance and reward frameworks drive and recognise the efforts that take us closer to our
mission.

• You have overseen performance and reward in a fast-growing, high-performance organisation, and you know how to
  make the two work together.
• You have designed and run performance review cycles that people trust, and remuneration review cycles that hold up
  to scrutiny.
• You are fluent in levelling and progression frameworks, and you can build the matrices that make career growth clear
  and consistent, including for highly technical career paths.
• You know how to benchmark against the market, create remuneration ranges, and keep them current as the market
  moves.
• You bring experience of both the Australian and US compensation markets.
• You have worked in deeply technical environments, developing structures that fit them, such as parallel technical and
  leadership career tracks.
• You are comfortable advising on executive and director remuneration, and presenting it clearly to a board where
  required.
• You bring rigour to reward decisions, and you can explain the logic behind every number.
• You balance fairness and competitiveness, and you design frameworks built to scale.
• You thrive in high-accountability, fast-moving environments where the quality of your work is visible.
