  • Administer job evaluation and profiling processes using approved methodologies (e.g., Peromnes, Patterson, Hay)

  • Provide analytical support for incentive programmes and performance-linked remuneration cycles

  • Engage stakeholders with clear advisory support and respond to queries within agreed service levels

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in HR Management, Industrial Psychology, Finance, or Commerce

  • GRP certification (advantageous)

  • 5 years' remuneration and benefits experience in an SOE, banking, or financial services environment

  • Strong remuneration/HR data analysis capability, including models, dashboards, and reporting

  • Experience in salary benchmarking, job evaluation, and job profiling

  • Exposure to dashboard tools such as Power BI or similar

  • Working knowledge of public sector governance and relevant legislation and guidelines (PFMA, DPE remuneration guidelines, King IV/King V)

What Success Looks Like

  • Accurate, audit-ready remuneration and benefits records and reporting

  • Market benchmarking and survey submissions delivered on time and to a high standard

  • Clear, decision-ready dashboards and insights that improve remuneration governance and workforce planning
