Every open compensation & benefits manager role we track is on this page - nothing is held back behind a sign-up. The city chips read the employer’s own location line; a listing that names no city we can resolve stays searchable but sits out of them.
Open to remote only? 14 of the 27 compensation & benefits manager listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 4 more are hybrid. The other 37 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.
Posted pay only - no estimates
What 30 of these listings actually printed.
Every figure here comes from a live posting with a stated annual base range. Nothing is modelled, inferred, or averaged in from a survey - which is also why the sample is smaller than the board.

Eight new roles were posted this week, indicating some ongoing hiring activity in this specialized human resources function. Companies actively recruiting for these positions include Legora, Gong, QuintoAndar, University of Rochester, and Instacart, spanning industries from technology and legal services to real estate, higher education, and consumer platforms. This diversity of employers suggests that compensation and benefits expertise is sought across multiple sectors rather than concentrated in a single industry. Regarding compensation for these roles, salary data drawn from current postings shows a median (P50) of $182,000. The 25th percentile stands at $144,630, while the 75th percentile reaches $245,000, indicating a fairly wide range in pay depending on factors such as company size, location, seniority level, and scope of responsibility. This spread suggests that candidates with more experience or those managing larger, more complex compensation and benefits programs may command salaries toward the upper end of this range, while those in earlier-career or narrower-scope roles may see figures closer to the lower percentile. With 59 open roles distributed among 41 companies, on average each hiring company has just over one open position, which may point to a relatively fragmented market rather than concentrated bulk hiring at any single employer. The presence of eight new postings in a single week relative to a total of 59 open roles suggests a moderate pace of new opportunities entering the market. Job seekers evaluating this field should consider that the available data reflects a snapshot of current postings and hiring activity, and figures may shift as more positions are added or filled.
