Remote Compensation Analyst Jobs in Canada

🌟 Shape the Future of Compensation, Wherever You Are

Imagine working from your favorite coffee shop in Vancouver or nestled in the quiet beauty of a Nova Scotia retreat while influencing compensation structures that drive global innovation. If numbers light your brain up like fireworks, and you see compensation strategy as both an art and a science, this is your next chapter. We’re looking for a Remote Compensation Analyst who can bring precision, creativity, and heart into every dataset they touch. This isn’t just about crunching numbers—it’s about reimagining how talent is rewarded in the modern workforce.

🚀 Our Journey So Far

Born from a bold vision to modernize workforce experience, our company began as a small idea in a co-working space. It evolved into a fully distributed, fast-scaling team that values flexibility, transparency, and innovation. From the outset, we recognized that retaining top talent requires more than just paychecks—it demands a sense of purpose. That’s why we blend strategy with empathy, logic with imagination, and data with storytelling to design compelling total rewards strategies.

🎯 What You'll Be Doing (Besides Being Awesome)

📊 Analyze with Impact

• Conduct salary benchmarking and compensation audits for remote and hybrid teams across Canada and beyond.
• Evaluate internal compensation data to uncover trends, discrepancies, and opportunities for optimization.
• Support pay equity initiatives and help build a more inclusive compensation narrative.

🧠 Strategize Like a Pro

• Collaborate with PeopleOps, Finance, and Talent teams to design pay frameworks that scale with company growth.
• Create models that forecast compensation costs, offering insights that shape business strategy.
• Analyze variable pay programs like commissions, incentives, and bonuses.

🧹 Optimize, Iterate, Repeat

• Recommend enhancements to our compensation philosophy and pay structures.
• Maintain job classification systems and ensure our job leveling framework reflects current realities.
• Monitor market trends in remote work compensation and proactively suggest pivots.

💻 The Tools You’ll Tame

You're no stranger to navigating through spreadsheets that rival the Matrix. But here, we take it a step further:

• Excel & Google Sheets (pivot tables, macros, the works)
• HRIS platforms (think BambooHR or equivalent)
• Remote-first compensation software (such as Payscale, Radford, or OpenComp)
• Data visualization tools like Tableau or Power BI to bring your insights to life
• Slack, Zoom, and project management tools that keep our distributed team seamlessly connected

• A minimum of three years working in compensation analysis or a closely related field, ideally within organizations embracing remote or flexible work
• Strong understanding of job architecture, market pricing, and pay structures
• Passion for fairness and pay transparency
• Comfortable working independently and navigating ambiguity
• A deep love of formulas (nested IFs are your jam)

🌈 Bonus Points If You...

• Have experience with global compensation strategies
• Know your way around Canadian labor standards
• Can turn complex data into a story that non-data folks understand
• Think like a compensation consultant but talk like a human being

🌍 Work Environment: Remote, but Never Alone

Whether you work from a cozy loft in Toronto or a hammock in the Rockies, you’ll be supported with:

• A home-office stipend
• Internet allowance
• Flexible hours to honor your productivity rhythm
• Dedicated quiet zones and collaboration hours
