Location: London, hybrid (2 days per week in office) About Hometree Join Hometree at the most exciting moment in our story. Founded in 2015, we've become one of the fastest-growing challengers in the UK home services market, spanning home cover that protects the essential systems in the home, renewable installations like solar, batteries and heat pumps, and the financing that makes them affordable. Together, we help homeowners look after their homes and move to greener, lower-carbon living. We're now going through the biggest step change in our history. By acquiring OVO Energy's Home Services division, including the trusted CORGI HomePlan and HomeHeat brands, we're becoming one of the UK's leading home services groups, with fresh investment to fuel our next phase of growth. It's a genuine inflection point, and we're looking for people who want to help us build what comes next. Key Achievements • UK's third-largest home cover provider: our latest acquisition makes us the third-largest provider of home cover in the UK. • Nearly 500,000 customers across the UK. • 550+ colleagues and a national network of 5,000+ qualified engineers. The Role This is the first dedicated Reward role at Hometree, and a chance to reimagine how a fast-scaling Group rewards its people. We have foundations to build on; you'll take them somewhere genuinely exciting and build a Total Reward offer that's a real lever for talent density, winning the best people and rewarding the performance that sets them apart. You'll start with our benefits proposition, including a new scheme for our incoming colleagues, then move quickly into the bigger build across pay, bonus and commission, pay bands and levelling. As an FCA-regulated Group, you'll keep Reward fair, compliant and competitive, building towards a longer-term move to pay transparency. We're after someone exceptionally smart and analytical with a builder's mindset and real craft: a high-agency operator who takes ownership, moves fast without sacrificing judgement, and can go from a senior leadership pay conversation to a benefits spreadsheet in the same day. You'll partner Finance, Commercial, Legal, Talent and the wider People team, and be the person who makes Reward clear, fair and motivating, not a gatekeeper. Do it brilliantly and this grows into Reward Lead and, longer term, Head of Reward. Responsibilities First up: benefits • Design the benefits proposition: Design a benefits proposition that helps us attract and retain the best talent, harmonising benefits across our existing and incoming colleagues, and roll out our first benefits platform (ThanksBen), including replacing the OVO scheme, which sunsets in January 2027. • Link pay to performance: Build a performance-based compensation philosophy so pay is clearly and fairly linked to performance, and our strongest performers are rewarded for the difference they make. • Bonus plans: Design and roll out Group-wide bonus plans that make our pay-for-performance culture real (the top priority), and refine sales commission plans over time. • Mature our compensation philosophy: Support the Group Director of People & Culture and Leadership to mature our compensation philosophy, giving us a clear, commercial and defensible approach to how we pay. • Review pay across the Group: Review compensation Group-wide, spotting gaps and risks and keeping us competitive, fair and compliant as a regulated Group. • Harmonise & extend pay bands: Harmonise our existing pay bands across our three contact centre populations and introduce pay bands across the rest of the Group, supporting our planned job levelling exercise to give clear, consistent structure. • Build the processes: Bring order and rigour to how Reward runs, building clean, reliable processes for bonus and commission payouts and partnering Finance and Payroll so pay, bonus and benefits flow through accurately and on time. • Rede
