Executive Compensation Advisor — Senior Officer Pack

Overview We are evaluating confidential advisory support on behalf of a senior officer at a publicly listed industrial company, recently expanded in scope following a large acquisition. The objective is to benchmark and position the officer's compensation package ahead of a direct discussion with the CEO. This is strategy work, not a templated survey. Scope Benchmark a multi-line package (base, annual incentive, long-term equity, transaction-related components) against comparable public-company roles Pressure-test the proposed structure for internal consistency and external defensibility Advise on framing and sequencing for the negotiation Flag equity-treatment, run-rate vs. one-time, and proxy/disclosure considerations Ideal candidate Executive compensation consulting, comp counsel, or senior total-rewards background Direct public-company NEO and equity experience Comfortable advising the principal, not the committee; discreet and responsive Engagement Time-boxed: a paid intro call plus a defined deliverable. All specifics shared only after a signed NDA. Please don't include company-identifying assumptions in your proposal — describe how you'd approach this kind of mandate and your relevant experience.
