Manage equity activity across multiple jurisdictions, including the UK, ensuring local compliance requirements are met

Partner closely with finance, legal, and accounting teams to support equity-related reporting and audits

Think proactively about post-IPO equity structures, including the transition of RSUs to single-trigger vesting, and ensure the program is set up to scale accordingly

Hire and develop a high-performing equity operations team over time

Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills, particularly with finance, legal, accounting, and tax teams

CEP (Certified Equity Professional) designation required

Why This Role

Build a team and equity operations function from scratch, in the way it should be done
