Senior Sales Compensation Associate

Required

• 6+ years in an analytical role, with at least 4 years in a dedicated sales compensation function at a B2B SaaS or high-growth technology company.
• Demonstrated ownership of monthly commission close payroll handoff, accrual submission, and variance reconciliation plus hands-on administration of an enterprise ICM platform (Xactly, CaptivateIQ, Varicent, or Spiff)
• Experience managing a compensation inquiry and dispute queue with defined SLAs and structured exception handling.
• Advanced Excel and equivalent Google Sheets proficiency: multi-sheet financial models, named ranges, array formulas, XLOOKUP and INDEX-MATCH, pivot tables, and dynamic charts, built without hardcoded cell references.
• Working experience with Salesforce, including opportunity objects, field mappings, report builder, and the data pipeline that feeds commission calculations.
• A bachelor's degree or equivalent related working experience is required.
• This position is not eligible for visa sponsorship.
• Rigorous about accuracy: treats each payout cycle as a zero-defect process and self-audits before submission so errors don't reach sellers.
• Able to manage several concurrent workstreams against fixed close-calendar deadlines without trading off quality.
• Able to explain complex plan mechanics to a seller in plain English and present attainment analytics to a VP in a single well-structured slide.
• Comfortable diagnosing ambiguous crediting scenarios from first principles and documenting a defensible conclusion.
• Inclined to ask how a process can be made repeatable and scalable, including by applying AI and automation tools to routine comp work, rather than accepting manual workarounds.
