Senior Director, Total Rewards
Job location
Bellevue, WA, USA
Job description

For over 20 years, Smartsheet has empowered teams to manage work seamlessly and scale solutions smarter. Now, in our most ambitious chapter yet, we are uniting human teams with AI agents. By orchestrating the work agents do best, automating manual tasks and uncovering insights at scale, we create the space for people to focus on what truly matters: judgment, creativity, and big thinking. That is magic at work, and it’s what we show up for every day.

Smartsheet is looking for a Senior Director, Total Rewards to shape how we pay, recognize, and retain our people. We’re building a culture where people love to work, and rewards are central to that.  Reporting to the SVP, People & Culture, you’ll design rewards strategies that are both compelling and sustainable, with direct visibility to the executive team, board, and private equity sponsors. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can balance competitive, market-informed programs with financial rigor, explain the “why” behind tough tradeoffs, and build trust across the organization.

This role is based in our Bellevue, WA, HQ and will report to the SVP of People & Culture.   

You Will:

  • Set and drive Smartsheet’s Total Rewards philosophy and strategy, aligned to business goals and within our private equity ownership structure.
  • Lead the design, implementation, and communication of compensation, equity, and benefits programs that attract, motivate, and retain top talent globally.
  • Own compensation matters including equity programs, peer group selection, and executive compensation.
  • Use data to evaluate program effectiveness and competitiveness; establish key metrics on usage, engagement, and cost.
  • Partner with FP&A and Accounting to ensure programs are financially sustainable and well aligned.
  • Lead the selection of benefits vendors and consultants, including contract and fee negotiations.
  • Build and develop a global, technically strong, business-minded Total Rewards team.
  • Rebuild and scale internal processes and systems to support programs and strategies, ensuring operational effectiveness across all elements of the team. 
  • Operate in a highly collaborative manner, working closely with People & Culture teammates, business leaders, and the executive team to build trust and communicate our rewards story as a part of our broader employer brand efforts.

You Have:  

  • 10+ years’ experience in Total Rewards, Compensation and Benefits including executive compensation, and equity program design.
  • Experience in a private-equity-owned or VC-backed environment preferred.
  • Demonstrated success leading and developing high-performing, global teams.
  • Proven experience creating and managing impactful total rewards programs in a fast-paced environment; skilled at interpreting business needs and making decisions based on emerging priorities.
  • Experience leading programs through significant organizational change, as a part of our overall business transformation.
  • Deep analytical skills with the ability to translate data and trends into key insights and recommendations.
  • Experience working with global teams and locations.
  • Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration, Finance, Human Resources, or related field.

Current US Perks & Benefits:

  • Employer subsidized medical/vision and dental coverage for full-time employees
  • 401k Match to help you save for your future (50% of your contribution up to the first 6% of your eligible pay)
  • Monthly stipend to support your work and productivity
  • Flexible Time Away Program, plus Sick Time Off
