Challenge

This project and change management consultancy has built a reputation for navigating complex IT system implementations and driving technology adoption within large organisations.

To appeal to strong potential candidates and retain great people, they needed clarity on how their compensation and benefits stacked up against others across the industry.

They also required consistency in how job roles are defined and graded. Expectations varied across teams and some internal roles didn’t reflect market norms, making career progression unclear.

Solution

Our tailored benchmarking report provided insight on far more than just salaries. Using both quantitative and qualitative data, we helped the consultancy understand how they compared to industry peers across compensation, benefits, role expectations and career path structures.

Strategic workforce insights

The benchmarking data provided the senior leadership team with a clear view of market trends, equipping them to make better-informed decisions to support salary adjustments, benefits and future hiring.

Organisational alignment

Our findings highlighted areas where role expectations needed realignment and career pathways have needed to better match market expectations.

Retention-focused recommendations

By analysing how their offering compared to the wider market, we surfaced potential risks to talent retention and offered clear, practical ways to create a more compelling employee experience.

Result

By carrying out annual benchmarking and partnering with them to implement the recommendations, they’ve grown significantly.
