About the job

About the role

Asana is seeking a Compensation Program Manager to join our People Operations team. This role is based in our San Francisco office with an office-centric hybrid schedule (in-office Monday, Tuesday, Thursday; work-from-home Wednesday; Friday depends on team).

What you’ll achieve

  • Lead end-to-end execution of Asana's annual merit and focal review cycle, including modeling budget scenarios, partnering with People Partners on calibration, and ensuring accurate system processing in Workday.
  • Own job matching and market pricing across functions using Radford, Pave, and Compa while maintaining salary structures and competitive ranges through regular refresh analysis.
  • Partner with People Partners and Talent Acquisition to evaluate new and evolving roles, establish leveling consistency, and maintain a clean job catalog in Workday.
  • Conduct pay equity analyses across the employee population, identify outliers, recommend corrective actions, and track progress against equity goals.
  • Serve as a day-to-day compensation advisor to People Partners and Recruiters, providing offer guidance, promotion assessments, and retention recommendations.
  • Support planning and administration of broad-based equity grants, partnering with Stock Admin and Finance.
  • Develop compensation communication materials and manager toolkits.

About you

  • 6-8 years of progressive global compensation experience, with a strong foundation in broad-based compensation programs.
  • Proven ability to own and run complex compensation cycles (merit, market refresh, pay equity) with minimal oversight.
  • Strong analytical and quantitative skills, with advanced proficiency in spreadsheet tools (e.g., Excel, Google Sheets) and experience building compensation models.
  • Experience with Workday Advanced Compensation, Pave, or survey benchmarking tools like Radford, Pave, and Compa.
  • Consultative mindset with the ability to translate complex data into actionable recommendations.
  • Curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies.

Compensation & benefits

The estimated base salary range is $176,000 - $200,000. The actual base salary will vary based on market and individual qualifications. In addition to base salary, the compensation package may include equity and benefits.
