About PalmPay

As PalmPay expands its footprint across Southeast Asia, our Philippines HR team is strengthening its strategic capabilities — especially in fair, competitive, and compliant reward systems. This role sits at the intersection of people strategy, data-driven decision-making, and local regulatory excellence

Key Responsibilities:

C&B Strategy & Framework Development: Design, implement, and continuously optimize compensation structures (base pay, allowances, incentives) aligned with Philippine market benchmarks (e.g., Aon, Mercer PH surveys), internal equity, and PalmPay's growth stage.

Total Rewards Administration: Oversee end-to-end management of statutory and discretionary benefits — including SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG, HMO, 13th-month pay, COLA, performance bonuses, and emerging offerings (e.g., flexible benefits, wellness stipends).

Market Intelligence & Benchmarking: Conduct regular salary benchmarking for key roles; analyze compensation trends across fintech, BPO, and tech sectors in the Philippines; prepare annual C&B review recommendations.

Payroll Collaboration & Compliance Assurance: Partner closely with Finance and Payroll vendors to ensure accurate, timely, and audit-ready payroll processing — fully compliant with DOLE Wage Orders, BIR tax rules (e.g., withholding tax on benefits), and NDPR.

C&B Communication & Employee Support: Develop clear, empathetic C&B guidelines and FAQs; advise managers and employees on compensation policies, benefit enrollment, and tax implications.

HRIS & Data Governance: Maintain clean, auditable C&B data in HRIS; generate dashboards (e.g., compa-ratio, turnover cost, benefit utilization) to inform leadership decisions.

Qualifications & Competencies:

Bachelor's degree in Psychology, HR, Finance, Economics, or related field; CHRP/PHRi/CIPM certification strongly preferred

Minimum 5 years of progressive HR experience, with at least 3-5 years focused specifically on Compensation & Benefits in the Philippines

Proven expertise in Philippine labor law (e.g., Wage Rationalization Act), tax treatment of benefits (BIR Revenue Regulations), and statutory requirements (SSS/PhilHealth/Pag-IBIG contribution ceilings, reporting)

Strong analytical skills: Experience using Excel (pivot tables, formulas), HRIS reporting modules, and interpreting compensation survey data

Excellent communication and stakeholder management — able to translate technical C&B concepts into business impact for leaders and employees

Fintech, tech, or high-growth startup experience is a distinct advantage

What We Offer:

Competitive PHP salary band (commensurate with experience & scope), plus performance-linked bonus

Opportunity to build PalmPay PH's first dedicated C&B function — with direct influence on pay philosophy and talent retention strategy
