Job Description
At LinkedIn, we trust each other to do our best work where it works best for us and our teams. This role offers a hybrid work option, meaning you can both work from home and commute to a LinkedIn office, depending on what’s best for you and when it is important for your team to be together.

In this role, you will coordinate ongoing cross-functional and internal projects and priorities relating to compensation policy, processes, systems, performance management reporting and operational excellence. You will concurrently work on multiple initiatives and manage an international portfolio of compensation projects, with key partners that can include Finance, Human Resources, Sales Leadership, Sales Operations, Sales Enablement, Sales Policy Management, IT, and Sales Compensation Teams (Systems, Reporting and Insights, Operations).
This role involves strategic planning and program management to ensure the effective coordination, development, and implementation and optimization of sales compensation programs across the compensation ecosystem and within the sales compensation team. The annual planning process involves the assessment and alignment of LinkedIn’s strategic priories and the development of sales compensation programs and incentives to drive and motivate the sales field to execute on those initiatives. This role will ensure that the resulting deliverables and activities are tightly planned and integrated on a weekly basis into the compensation systems and operations calendars that dictate the build and execution phases of compensation delivery. The senior program manager will also serve as a thought leader and partner to cross functional leaders through building relationships, fostering open dialogue, and providing creative solutions to evolving business needs and issues that arise.
It is critical that the person hired for this role can analyze and anticipate the needs of partners and aligned leaders, with a focus on moving these initiatives forward to completion. This person will provide strategic guidance and direction, along with analyzing data and removing business obstacles. The expectation is the ability to perform consistently, successfully and professionally in a challenging and extremely fast-paced environment, while also having the grace and willingness to change direction when circumstances demand. Required is a high level of integrity and confidentiality with sensitive information, while driving to get things done.
