Salary Sizing

Salary sizing, or salary benchmarking, is the process of assessing salaries / wages for positions using market data, role responsibilities, internal pay structures, and organisational goals.

Our process helps ensure that compensation aligns with market rates and matches the value provided by the role within an organisation. Salary sizing is often used by companies to stay competitive, attract and retain talent, and maintain equity.
