Ferring+You

As our Global Rewards Senior Analyst you’ll sit at the heart of global compensation delivery - ensuring flawless execution of annual reward cycles, strengthening governance, and continuously improving how reward programs operate at scale.

While you’ll own the end-to-end administration of Long-Term Incentives, this is not a pure LTI role. The real breadth comes from leading global compensation operations, partnering across HR, Finance, Payroll, and vendors, and shaping how reward processes evolve in a Workday-enabled environment.

If you like data, systems, structure, and global reach — and want a role where operational excellence is genuinely valued — this one’s for you.

• Partner closely with HR Business Partners, Finance, Payroll, and external vendors to ensure seamless delivery.

• Monitor compliance with global policies and local regulatory requirements, escalating risks where needed.

• Contribute to operational insights and market awareness to support the evolution of the global reward strategy.
