Summary: Seeking a Senior Compensation Specialist to lead client implementation, project management, and technical scoping, blending solutions engineering rigor with compensation expertise and trusted advisory. Highlights: 1. Shape how ambitious sales organizations design incentive programs 2. High ownership of projects and client relationships 3. Strategic influence and fast growth potential DESCRIPTION Barcelona — 4 days in\-office, 1 day remote Full\-time Remuner, a fast\-growing B2B SaaS company in the RevOps tech space **About the Role** Remuner is transforming how companies design, manage, and communicate sales incentives. We're looking for a **Senior Compensation Specialist** — a role at the intersection of pre\-sales, implementation, and strategic advisory. You'll enter client conversations before the deal is signed, earn trust through the right questions, and leave with a clear picture of what to build. Then you'll own delivery end\-to\-end, bridging client needs with Remuner's internal tech and data team. This is not a support role or a classic CS role. It's for someone who combines the rigor of a solutions engineer, the depth of a compensation expert, and the instincts of a trusted advisor. **What You'll Own** **Client Implementation \& Advisory** * Lead the full implementation lifecycle for strategic accounts: scoping, configuration, QA, go\-live, and post\-launch review. * Become the expert on each client's compensation logic — commissions, accelerators, SPIFFs, clawbacks, team vs. individual plans — and translate them accurately into Remuner. * Challenge clients when their compensation design has flaws and propose better approaches grounded in best practices. * Own client outcomes: find and fix issues before the client does. **Project Management** * Run 4–8 concurrent implementation projects at different stages without dropping the ball. * Define project plans, milestones, risk tracking, and escalation paths; communicate status proactively to all stakeholders. * Identify blockers early — client, product or data\-side — and drive resolution. * Build and evolve implementation playbooks, templates, and documentation as we scale. **Technical Scoping \& Specifications** * Define technical requirements for each implementation: compensation model, data sources, system integrations, and data flows. * Translate client business logic into clear specs for Remuner's internal implementation team — you are the bridge, not the builder. * Spot gaps in data quality, integration readiness, or system architecture early, before they become mid\-implementation problems. * Collaborate closely with engineering throughout delivery to ensure what's built matches what was scoped. **Pre\-Sales \& Commercial Involvement** * Lead discovery sessions before contracts are signed to define what clients actually need. * Co\-own requirements documents with the sales team: structured specs covering compensation logic, data landscape, and integration needs. * Build trust with senior stakeholders — VP Sales, CFO, Head of RevOps, CHRO — through deep understanding and rigorous scoping, not demos. * Facilitate cross\-functional working sessions: drive decisions, manage disagreements, and keep momentum. * Feed patterns, edge cases, and feature needs back to Remuner's Product and Engineering teams. **Team Contribution** * Mentor junior CS and implementation team members, raising the overall bar. * Contribute to the definition of compensation best practices based on what you see across client portfolios. **Why This Role Matters** * Strategic influence — Shape how ambitious sales organizations across Europe design their incentive programs. * High ownership — You run your projects and client relationships from day one, no micromanagement. * Fast growth — Remuner is scaling quickly; this role grows with the company. **What We Offer** * **Hybrid work** — Remote\-friendly days built into the rhythm — office\-first, but with real flexibility when life calls for it. * **Brand new office** — Great views, a young ambitious team, and a strong atmosphere. * **Office Comforts** – Fresh fruit, coffee, and snacks to keep you fueled. * **Lunch Catering** – From Monday to Thursday enjoy free in\-office lunch * **Flexible Compensation** – Optimize part of your salary through tax\-efficient benefits (transport, meals, health insurance, childcare). REQUIREMENTS **What We're Looking For** **Non\-negotiable** * 4–5 years in roles combining client management, SaaS implementation, or compensation consulting in B2B environments. * You have personally led implementations — end\-to\-end, owning the outcome, not supporting someone else's project. * Proven ability to manage multiple simultaneous projects with different clients and timelines without losing structure or quality. * Solid understanding of sales compensation: commissions, accelerators, quota structures, SPIFFs, draws, and clawbacks. * Track record of influencing senior stakeholders (C\-level, VP, Director) in client\-facing contexts. * Excellent written and verbal communication — executive meetings, clear specs, and simplifying complexity for any audience. * Fluent in Spanish and English. **Strong advantage** * Background in compensation consulting, RevOps, or enterprise Sales Operations. * Hands\-on experience with sales compensation management platforms. * Ability to work with data: SQL, advanced Excel/Sheets, BI tools. * Experience at a SaaS company during rapid growth (Series A–C). * Formal project management training or certification.
