  • Strong knowledge of market‑based compensation practices and relevant employment legislation

  • Advanced Excel skills (complex formulas, pivot tables, modeling); comfort working in highly detailed, data‑driven environments

  • Experience with Workday compensation modules is a strong asset; energy sector and/or international compensation experience is a plus
