Job Description

Responsibilities

Why PayNet / Why Now 

  • National payments infrastructure with real economic and systemic impact
  • Organisation entering a phase of greater scale, scrutiny, and performance expectations
  • Leadership demanding stronger accountability, clearer reward logic, and better data to make guide
  • People function expected to shape outcomes and influence direction, not just administer process



TL;DR 

  • Own and shape PayNet’s performance and rewards agenda, end‑to‑end 
  • Influence senior leadership decisions on outcomes and reward trade‑offs 
  • Move the organisation from process compliance to performance differentiation 
  • High‑visibility role with exposure to Senior Management and Board‑level discussions 



Why This Role Matters 

  • Own and shape PayNet's performance and rewards agenda, end-to-end
  • Influence senior leadership decisions on performance outcomes and reward trade-offs
  • Move the organisation from process compliance to a culture of meaningful accountability and reward clarity
  • High-visibility role with direct exposure to Senior Management and Board-level discussions

This is a role where judgment matters more than perfect process execution.

This role ensures: 

  • Performance outcomes are fair, differentiated, and governance‑sound 
  • Reward decisions are data‑driven and clearly explained 
  • Job levels are governed well across the organisation
  • Leaders are supported to make confident, accountable rewards decisions 



What You Will Actually Do 

  • Own the full performance management lifecycle - from goal-setting and mid-cycle reviews through to calibration, ratings, and reward payouts
  • Design, evolve, and govern performance and rewards frameworks that are fit for purpose as the organisation grows in complexity
  • Own the governance of job evaluation and job levelling - ensuring the job architecture remains sound as the organisation scales and evolves
  • Translate performance and rewards data into clear, actionable insights that support leadership decision-making
  • Facilitate performance calibration sessions with senior leaders, bringing structure and conviction to conversations where outcomes need to be challenged or reset
  • Advise on pay positioning, compensation adjustments, and the talent implications of reward decisions
  • Prepare and present materials for PGMC and Board oversight, ensuring governance standards are met without sacrificing clarity



Examples of This Role in Practice 

  • Leading a performance calibration discussion where ratings need to be challenged and reset 
  • Redesigning reward mechanics to address weak differentiation between performers and non-performers
  • Running scenarios to demonstrate to Management the cost and impact of reward options 
  • Producing insights that test whether potential outcomes of performance and rewards changes reflect PayNet’s priorities 
  • Unblocking stalled performance decisions with clarity and judgment
  • Reviewing and adjudicating job evaluation submissions where levelling outcomes are contested or inconsistent across functions  



What Will Help You Succeed 

  • Experience owning rewards and performance work end‑to‑end
  • Confidence influencing senior stakeholders using data and logic
  • Familiarity with job evaluation methodologies and the judgment to apply them consistently in a complex organisational context  
  • Ability to balance fairness, governance, and business realities 
  • Comfortable operating where there is no perfect answer 

Helpful (not mandatory): 

  • Experience operating in a complex or regulated environments 
  • Exposure to PGMC / Board‑level materials 
  • Strong analytical thinking paired with pragmatism
