Head Of People Ops And Total Rewards

At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it.

As Head of People Ops and Total Rewards at Vanta, you will lead our core People Operations and Total Rewards functions and help us scale them from several hundred to several thousand Vanta'ns.

The mission of Vanta's People Team is to enable all Vanta'ns, worldwide, to do the best work of their careers. Vanta's People Team accomplishes this mission by being relentlessly focused on our business and driving business outcomes - and doing so in a data-driven and business-minded way. All of our People Team functions are efficiently staffed and high performing, earning tremendous trust in our business; and most of our People Team teammates are embedded with the Vanta departments that they support, to drive better alignment and help those teams achieve their business outcomes.

Our Head of People Ops and Total Rewards will be highly analytical, thoughtful, business-oriented, humble, and low ego, and will have a playbook (that can be modified to be "Vanta-specific") on how to scale People Ops and Total Rewards to provide top notch service, compensation, and benefits to every Vanta'n, worldwide.

What you'll do as Head of People Ops and Total Rewards at Vanta :

• Lead our People Ops, Compensation, and Benefits teams, along with leading and building other teams that are part of People Ops (e.g., People Systems, People Analytics).
• Partner closely with our senior leadership to build efficient, scalable, best-in-class systems and processes to support Vanta's people growth.
• Drive upward and outward reporting and visibility for all People Team functions, clearly and frequently explaining our impact to the broader organization.
• Drive long-term improvements in People Ops, Compensation, and Benefits systems and processes, particularly from the perspective of anticipating challenges of future scale before they materialize and building for the future.
• Provide coaching, mentorship, and support for our awesome People Ops and Compensation teams, and continue hiring A+ teammates to scale them.
• Help provide meaningful, and current, benchmarking of best practices across all People Team functions - while not being beholden to any HR playbook and rethinking everything from the ground up in keeping with Vanta's principles and high level of action-orientation and operational rigor and excellence.

We started in 2018, in the wake of several high-profile data breaches. Online security was only becoming more important, but we knew firsthand how hard it could be for fast-growing companies to invest the time and manpower it takes to build a solid security foundation. Vanta was inspired by a vision to restore trust in internet businesses by enabling companies to improve and prove their security. From our early days automating security monitoring for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 to creating the world's leading Trust Management Platform, our vision remains unchanged.

Now more than ever, making security continuousnot just a point-in-time check is essential. Thousands of companies rely on Vanta to build, maintain and demonstrate their trust all in a way that's real-time and transparent.
