Business Operations Lead, Compensation & Equity

📋 Description

• Lead high-priority compensation and equity projects from problem definition through analysis, recommendation, stakeholder alignment, and execution.
• Build analytical models and decision frameworks for compensation bands, equity grants, refresh programs, promotion cycles, retention offers, international compensation, incentive structures, and executive-level scenarios.
• Partner with leaders across People, Talent, Finance, Legal, Sales, Product, Engineering, and executive leadership to translate complex compensation questions into clear, practical recommendations.
• Help run and improve major company-wide compensation processes, including merit cycles, promotion cycles, equity refreshers, offer governance, and special compensation reviews.
• Develop tools, templates, dashboards, and workflows that make compensation decisions faster, more accurate, and more consistent as Ramp grows.
• Use AI to remove manual work from the compensation function: pulling relevant context, flagging exceptions, drafting decision materials, and automating repeatable analysis.

🎯 Requirements

• 4-8 years of experience in business operations, corporate strategy, consulting, finance, people strategy, or another analytical operating role, ideally with senior stakeholders, fast timelines, and ambiguous problems.
• Exceptional analytical and structured problem-solving skills, including strong Excel / Google Sheets modeling.
• Experience building executive-facing analyses, operating models, decision memos, or board-level materials.
• Practical AI fluency. You should be comfortable using AI tools to build, prototype, automate, and improve workflows, with good judgment about where AI helps and where human judgment is required.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills. You can simplify complex or sensitive topics for executive and non-technical audiences.
• Ability to work onsite from Ramp's New York office three or more days per week.
