We’ve raised $320m+ from top-tier investors, including Battery Ventures, General Catalyst, Sapphire Ventures, Insight Partners, and Human Capital, and today, Onebrief is valued at $2.15B. With this continued growth, Onebrief is able to make an impact where it matters most.

About the role

As Onebrief scales, we’re building a clear, fair, and scalable approach to how we pay, reward, and support our team. We’re looking for a Senior Compensation Manager to own our compensation strategy and oversee our benefits programs, across our remote, fast-growing company.

This role is compensation-first (~70%), with hands-on ownership of salary bands, equity programs, compensation cycles, and incentive design. You’ll also guide the evolution of our benefits offerings, ensuring they remain competitive, compliant, and aligned with our stage of growth.

This is a senior individual contributor role: you’ll set the approach and run the work, partnering closely with People, Finance, Legal, and revenue leaders.

About You

You’re a seasoned total rewards professional with deep compensation expertise and practical experience managing benefits programs. You enjoy designing cash, equity, and incentive systems that are clear, scalable, and grounded in market data, and you’re comfortable owning both the strategy and execution.

You have experience supporting revenue-generating teams and understand how compensation and incentives drive behavior and outcomes, ideally across both tech startups and public sector–oriented sales or revenue models. You bring a systems mindset and are trusted to advise leaders on sensitive pay and benefits decisions.

You communicate clearly and thoughtfully, and can translate complex compensation and benefits concepts into guidance that’s simple and actionable for managers and employees.

What you'll do

• Own and evolve Onebrief’s cash and equity compensation structures, including salary bands and equity guidelines, using market data and leveling frameworks

• Lead the ongoing application of Onebrief’s compensation philosophy

• Refine and advise on incentive compensation structures for revenue-facing teams, in partnership with Sales, Customer Relations, Finance, and People Business Partners

• Provide compensation and equity guidance for offers in partnership with Talent Acquisition

• Partner with Finance and Legal on equity planning, reviews, and implementation

• Run annual and off-cycle compensation cycles, including merit increases, promotions, and equity updates

• Oversee benefits programs and benchmarking, with a focus on keeping offerings competitive and scalable

• Create clear documentation and communications so managers and employees understand how pay, equity, benefits, and incentives work

What we look for

• ~7-10 years of experience in total rewards, with clear depth in compensation

• Strong experience with compensation program design, benchmarking, salary bands, equity frameworks, and comp cycles

• Hands-on experience designing and supporting incentive compensation programs

• Experience in tech startups, with exposure to public sector or government-aligned sales/revenue a strong plus

• Strong analytical and modeling skills, and comfort making recommendations with incomplete data

• Ability to explain complex compensation topics clearly and thoughtfully
