My client is an established investment management business looking to hire a Share Plans & Reward Manager into its London-based HR team. The business has a collaborative culture and offers considerable exposure across the organisation.
This is a hands-on role with responsibility for two specialist areas of reward: the administration of employee share plans and the management of regulatory remuneration deferrals. There may also be an opportunity to become involved in broader HR activity, making this a varied position with good exposure across the business.
Manage the end-to-end administration of employee share plans, including grants, vesting, exercises, forfeitures and lapses.
Run annual grant and vesting cycles, including calculations, documentation and participant communications.
Maintain accurate share plan records and coordinate with relevant internal stakeholders and external providers.
Support associated regulatory, tax, accounting and reporting requirements.
Manage annual share scheme reporting and statutory filings, respond to employee queries and provide ad hoc management reporting.
Deferred remuneration
Manage the end-to-end deferral process for variable remuneration in accordance with applicable regulatory remuneration requirements, including MIFIDPRU.
Coordinate with relevant internal teams to ensure deferrals are calculated and processed accurately and on time.
Maintain appropriate records, support remuneration policy reviews and regulatory reporting, and liaise with relevant external providers.
HR Generalist (Optional)
Provide day-to-day HR support across the employee lifecycle, including onboarding, leavers, employee queries and maintaining accurate HR records.
Support annual HR processes including salary, bonus and performance reviews, as well as wider HR projects and process improvements.
The candidate
Good experience of managing employee share schemes, ideally gained within financial services or a listed business.
Strong numerical skills, attention to detail and confidence working with complex data and deadlines.
Able to work effectively with senior stakeholders and teams across the business.
Good Excel skills and experience of EBTs and HMRC share scheme reporting.
Knowledge of MIFIDPRU remuneration requirements would be useful but is not essential.
Some broader HR experience within financial services would also be helpful.
