Executive Remuneration, Reward and Performance

Creating the right reward plans for your employees is essential to attract and retain key staff. We help clients from strategy development through to execution of programs that support their business goals and objectives, while complying with regulatory issues.

Many challenges that we help clients with include:

• Designing comprehensive, competitive and justifiable executive remuneration models
• Aligning reward programs for top talent with other key human resource strategies and policies
• Complying with new legislation and corporate governance codes
• Ensuring reward plans operate efficiently and effectively from an accounting, legal, tax and corporate governance perspective and are competitive in the marketplace (and that packages meet shareholder and stakeholder expectations)
• Optimising the P&L, balance sheet and cash flow aspects of reward programs
• Recruitment, retention and staff motivation
• Designing a reward strategy that supports business objectives, aligns and focuses performance and creates value for shareholders
• Helping review non-executive director/ board remuneration practices and ensuring they're in line with changing governance standards and role expectations.
