The Role

At SoFi, we're building a world-class compensation function that enables us to attract, retain, and reward exceptional talent as we continue to grow. We're looking for a strategic and hands-on Director of Compensation to lead our enterprise compensation programs and partner closely with business leaders to ensure our compensation philosophy supports our business strategy and culture.

Reporting to the Head of Total Rewards, this leader will own broad-based compensation strategy and execution across the company while leading a high-performing team of compensation professionals. You'll partner with executives, People Business Partners, Finance, Talent Acquisition, Legal, and business leaders to evolve compensation programs that are market competitive, equitable, scalable, and aligned with SoFi's long-term objectives.

This is an opportunity to shape the future of compensation at one of the most innovative companies in financial services while leading an established team and influencing enterprise-wide decisions.

What You'll Do

  • Lead SoFi's broad-based compensation function, including strategy, design, governance, implementation, and ongoing optimization.
  • Develop and evolve compensation programs that support business growth, talent attraction, retention, internal equity, and pay-for-performance principles.
  • Lead and develop a high-performing team of six compensation professionals, fostering a culture of collaboration, continuous improvement, and operational excellence.
  • Partner closely with executive leadership, HR Business Partners, Finance, Talent Acquisition, and Legal to advise on compensation strategy and complex compensation decisions.
  • Drive annual compensation planning, including merit, bonus, promotional, and equity review processes.
  • Partner closely with Staff Compensation Analyst on market pricing, salary structures, job architecture, leveling, geographic pay practices, and compensation benchmarking.
  • Ensure compensation programs remain competitive, compliant, and aligned with SoFi's compensation philosophy and evolving business needs.
  • Provide strategic guidance on organizational design, new business initiatives, acquisitions, and workforce planning from a compensation perspective.
  • Lead the broad-based compensation strategy for corporate development and M&A activities—driving compensation due diligence, retention package modeling, leveling/job-architecture mapping, and integration of acquired talent into SoFi’s total rewards framework.
  • Leverage market intelligence, internal analytics, and compensation data to provide actionable recommendations to senior leadership.
  • Partner with executive compensation and equity teams to ensure consistency across compensation programs and support enterprise compensation governance.
  • Continuously improve compensation processes, systems, reporting, and operational efficiency while maintaining strong controls and compliance.

What You'll Need

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.
  • 15+ years of progressive compensation experience, including leadership within complex, high-growth, global organizations.
  • Experience leading enterprise broad-based compensation strategy for a public or late-stage private company.
  • Curiosity and practical experience leveraging AI tools or workflow automations to optimize compensation processes.
  • Demonstrated success leading and developing high-performing compensation teams.
  • Deep expertise in compensation philosophy, salary structures, market pricing, incentive design, job architecture, and leveling.
  • Experience partnering directly with senior executives on strategic compensation decisions.
  • Strong analytical capabilities with experience using market survey data and compensation analytics to influence business decisions.
  • Proven ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders and navigate complex organizational environments.
  • Excellent communication and executive presentation skills.

Nice To Have

  • Certified Compensation Professional (CCP).
  • Experience supporting global compensation programs.
  • Experience within fintech, marketplace, SaaS, or other high-growth technology companies.
  • Exposure to executive compensation, equity strategy, or Compensation Committee support.
  • Experience implementing or evolving compensation technology and processes at scale.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
