Job Purpose

Bring CNH Industrial Total Rewards to life — and create a workplace where people thrive.

 

Are you passionate about supporting employees, simplifying complex total rewards processes, and building a more engaging and inclusive workplace? Do you thrive on solving challenges, improving systems, and driving strategic impact? If so, CNH Industrial wants to meet you. 

We are seeking a Compensation Lead to join our collaborative Human Resources team. In this high-impact role, you will play a critical part in shaping compensation programs that attract, retain, and recognize the people who power our mission — to meet the global challenge of feeding and sheltering a growing population while staying within our planet’s limits.

This role offers a unique blend of employee-facing support and behind-the-scenes leadership in systems, data, and process optimization.  You’ll work cross-functionally to bring CNH Industrial’s Total Rewards strategy to life — driving continuous improvement, ensuring internal equity, and delivering an exceptional employee experience across the organization.  This is a hybrid role and requires being onsite three days (3) per week out of our offices in Oak Brook, IL and two (2) days remote.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the execution of compensation initiatives, including market pricing, survey participation, and benchmarking analysis to maintain competitive and equitable pay practices.
  • Oversee the design and administration of compensation structures, job evaluations (including hourly and salaried roles), and incentive programs such as sales incentive plan (SIP) and company bonus plans (CBP/variable pay).
  • Monitor compensation data and trends, ensuring compliance with evolving legislation and internal policies; proactively identify and address pay equity or structure issues.
  • Own key processes - bonus administration, sales incentive administration, general wage increases, intern compensation, and hourly bonus programs.
  • Serve as the primary compensation advisor to HR partners and business leaders, providing expert guidance on offers, promotions, and compensation policies.
  • Champion effective communication of total rewards programs to promote transparency and employee understanding.
  • Produce and analyze compensation reports; drive process improvements and lead reviews of compensation tools (e.g., promotion tool, salary planning systems).
  • Partner with global and local stakeholders to align compensation strategy with CNH Industrial’s reward philosophy and evolving business needs.
  • Contribute to and deliver compensation-related training and resources across the HR and leadership community.

Experience Required

  • Bachelor’s degree required in Human Resources, Business Administration, Finance, Economics, or a related technical field
  • 8+ years of progressive compensation experience, including market pricing, job evaluation, and incentive plan administration.
  • Minimum of 2 years in a lead or senior-level compensation role, with demonstrated success advising HR and business leaders.
  • Proven experience managing core compensation processes (merit, bonus, sales incentives, and promotions) within a complex organizational environment.
  • Strong analytical capability and advanced Excel skills, with the ability to work with large datasets and translate insights into clear, actionable recommendations.
  • Working knowledge of compensation tools and systems such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, or MarketPay.
  • Solid understanding of compensation compliance requirements, including FLSA and pay equity principles.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master’s degree or MBA in a related field.
  • CCP (Certified Compensation Professional) or other relevant certification.
  • Experience supporting both salaried and hourly employee groups, ideally in a manufacturing or industrial setting.
  • Familiarity with global compensation practices and working in a matrixed, multinational organization.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to clearly explain complex compensation concepts to non-HR audiences.
