About the Role
At Canon, our people strategy is built on insight, fairness and commercial impact. We’re looking for an experienced Remuneration & Analytics Specialist to play a pivotal role in designing and delivering remuneration, incentive and analytics solutions that support our strategic goals across Canon Group Oceania.
You’ll be the subject matter expert across remuneration, incentives, benefits and HR analytics. Acting as a trusted advisor, you’ll bring together commercial modelling, governance, compliance and insights to support Canon’s attraction, engagement and performance outcomes. You’ll play a key role in the annual remuneration and incentive processes. You’ll oversee superannuation governance, manage key regulatory reporting (including WGEA), and continually evolve our analytics capability to enable better decision making.
This is a highly visible role where you’ll partner closely with HR, Finance and senior leaders to make a valuable contribution to the HR leadership team.
The scope of the role includes:
- Lead the group‑wide remuneration review process, including commercial modelling, delivery on time and within budget
- Manage annual incentive calculations and the preparation and distribution of senior leader letters
- Design, review and evolve remuneration, incentive and benefits programs
- Own superannuation governance, including policy management, provider relationships and committee coordination
- Manage headcount governance, including weekly requests and quarterly executive reporting
- Develop and enhance HR analytics dashboards and reporting in PowerBI, including performance trends and insights
- Collate and manage data for WGEA reporting, tracking progress against targets
- Maintain and refresh the Remuneration Governance Plan, including allowances and compliance data
- Maintain SAP reporting libraries and deliver regular reporting aligned to group requirements
- Proactively manage the HR P&L, tracking expenditure, reporting variances and identifying efficiency opportunities
- Research market data and provide benchmarking insights and recommendations
- Partner with external consultants (e.g. Mercer, Aon) to stay ahead of remuneration trends
- Provide expert advice to leaders on salary, incentives, benefits and superannuation
- Drive continuous improvement of remuneration processes, systems and controls
- Support audits and ensure ongoing regulatory and policy compliance
- Identify and oversee SAP remuneration module enhancements and upgrades
About you
You bring experience from either a remuneration and benefits or finance background, with a strong track record of managing remuneration programs, incentive frameworks and budgets in complex organisations. You’re commercially focused and comfortable working in environments where accuracy, governance and financial discipline are critical.
Your key strength is your ability to analyse data and turn it into clear, actionable insights. You enjoy working with complex data sets, building models, identifying trends and providing evidence based recommendations that support senior leaders to make informed decisions. You’re technically capable, with advanced Excel skills and experience using tools such as SAP and PowerBI to deliver accurate, meaningful reporting.
You have a sound understanding of remuneration and incentive design, market benchmarking and the Australian regulatory landscape, including superannuation requirements. You communicate with confidence, build strong relationships across HR, Finance and the business, and are valued for your ability to translate data into practical, commercial advice. Experience with HR systems, payroll or project delivery will be well regarded.
What’s in it for you
This is a high impact role where your insights directly influence senior leaders and business outcomes. You’ll enjoy autonomy, flexibility and the opportunity to shape how Canon rewards and engages its people, supported by a collaborative and inclusive culture.
