  • Support incentive calculations and prepare accurate, well-organized outputs for review and approval
  • Partner with Accounting on incentive-related accounts, including reconciliations, accrual support, account coding, and responding to questions about plan results
  • Coordinate with Payroll to prepare and submit approved incentive payments accurately and by established deadlines
  • Maintain clear records of plan inputs, calculations, approvals, adjustments, and submissions
  • Help identify ways to make incentive processes more accurate, consistent, and efficient
  • Respond to questions from internal partners and explain data or calculations clearly
  • Handle sensitive compensation information with discretion and care

    • Education and Experience:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Analytics, Economics, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience
  • Strong academic, project, internship, or work background in finance, accounting, data analysis, or business analysis. Professional experience is not required
  • Strong attention to detail and a habit of checking work for accuracy and completeness
  • Comfort working with numbers, spreadsheets, and structured data; experience with Excel or Google Sheets is helpful
  • Ability to investigate a data issue, ask focused questions, and explain what you found
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across teams
  • Good organization and follow-through, especially when managing recurring deadlines
