Head of CompensationActive$300K

The opportunity

At Klaviyo, we value the unique backgrounds, experiences and perspectives each Klaviyo (we call ourselves Klaviyos) brings to our workplace each and every day. We believe everyone deserves a fair shot at success and appreciate the experiences each person brings beyond the traditional job requirements.

What you'll do

  • Annual and off-cycle comp strategy: merit philosophy, equity refresh design, and budget modeling.

  • Executive and board-level comp support: materials for the compensation committee, executive offer structuring.

  • Partnering with Talent Acquisition on offer strategy for hard-to-fill and competitive roles.

  • Pay equity analysis and remediation, in partnership with Legal and People Ops.

  • International comp: extending our comp structures as we grow into new markets.

  • M&A comp — talent diligence, leveling incoming employees against our: framework, and integrating bonus and equity payout structures as we bring acquired teams on board

What they're looking for

  • Special projects: the “just for this” asks from senior leadership that don't fit a template.
  • + years in compensation, with real ownership of comp strategy and structure: at a growth-stage company — not just cycle administration.
  • You've rebuilt or meaningfully overhauled a comp function or framework before: — leveling, market pricing, or philosophy — not just maintained one you inherited.
  • Deep fluency with modern comp tools and data sources (market pricing: platforms, pay equity analytics, compensation management systems) — you've actually used them hands-on.
