Job Summary
We are looking for a Performance Rewards Specialist to work as an individual contributor owning the end-to-end performance management cycle (approximately 70% of the role) and supporting compensation rewards processes (approximately 30% of the role). This is a hands-on execution role rather than a people-management role - the candidate will drive processes directly, working closely with HRBPs, managers, and Finance, without managing a team. The ideal candidate has hands-on working experience with Keka HRMS and brings strong process discipline, data accuracy, and stakeholder management skills to drive a fair, transparent, and well-governed performance and rewards ecosystem.
Key Responsibilities
Performance Management (70%)
- Own and administer the complete performance management lifecycle - goal-setting/OKR cascading, mid-year and annual reviews, self-appraisals, manager appraisals, calibration, and closure - end to end on Keka.
- Configure and manage performance review cycles, templates, rating scales, and workflows in Keka.
- Drive timely completion of goal-setting, check-ins, and appraisal cycles through tracking, reminders, and escalations to managers and employees.
- Support calibration sessions across business units - consolidating ratings, flagging outliers, and preparing calibration decks/data for leadership discussions.
- Partner with business unit HRBPs and managers to ensure quality of goal-setting (SMART goals/OKRs) and meaningful feedback documentation.
- Manage Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs) - tracking, documentation, and coordination with managers and HR business partners.
- Generate performance analytics and dashboards (bell curve distribution, rating trends, department-wise performance, low performer tracking) for leadership and EXCO reviews.
- Handle employee and manager queries related to the performance process; act as the go-to POC for the performance module in Keka.
- Continuously improve the performance process - templates, communication, training material, and manager enablement (FAQs, how-to guides, calibration toolkits).
- Ensure performance data feeds accurately into downstream processes (increments, promotions, bonus payouts).
Compensation Rewards (30%)
- Support the annual compensation review cycle - merit increases, promotions, and bonus/variable pay calculations, working closely with Finance and business leaders.
- Assist in preparing and maintaining salary benchmarking data, compensation structures, and pay bands.
- Coordinate the compensation planning tool/module in Keka - budget allocation, manager recommendations, approvals, and final letter generation.
- Support administration of rewards and recognition programs, including tracking nominations, budgets, and payouts.
- Assist in variable pay/bonus calculations based on performance ratings and business/individual metrics.
- Maintain compensation data integrity in Keka and ensure compliance with internal pay equity guidelines.
- Support ad hoc compensation analyses (pay equity checks, attrition-linked compensation trends, offer benchmarking) as required.
- Assist with statutory/compliance aspects related to compensation documentation.
Required Skills Experience
- 4-7 years of total HR experience, with a significant focus on performance management (majority of experience) and exposure to compensation benefits .
- Hands-on, working knowledge of Keka HRMS - specifically the Performance and Compensation/Payroll-linked modules - is mandatory.
- Strong understanding of performance management frameworks (goal-setting, OKRs, competency-based appraisals, bell curve/forced ranking, calibration).
- Working knowledge of compensation fundamentals - salary structuring, benchmarking, variable pay design, and increment/bonus cycles.
- Strong Excel/data analysis skills ; comfort building dashboards and reports from HRIS data.
- Excellent stakeholder management - ability to work independently with managers, HRBPs, Finance, and leadership.
- High attention to detail and discretion in handling confidential compensation and performance data.
- Strong process orientation, ownership, and ability to manage multiple cycles/deadlines simultaneously, without relying on a team to execute.
Good to Have
- Prior experience in a listed/mid-size organization with multi-business-unit structure.
- Exposure to designing or refining performance policies, competency frameworks, or reward programs.
- Experience preparing leadership/EXCO-level dashboards and analytics.
Qualification
- Postgraduate in HR, Business Administration, or related field (MBA-HR preferred).
Awards won by IRIS
- Won recognition as India's best Fintech at the Financial Express Best Banks Awards. An award that was presented to our CEO by Smt Nirmala Sitharaman, Finance Minister, Govt of India.
- IRIS has been selected as the Best Tax Technology Service Provider 2022 in category National Taxation Awards at the TIOL Awards.
