Sales Compensation Analyst (Contract)

Playlist

About this role

The Role You'll Play Playlist is seeking a detail-oriented analyst for a contracting role supporting sales compensation across Playlist’s brands. You’ll help ensure earnings are accurately calculated, processed on time, and delivered to Payroll with strong controls and clear documentation.

  • Process manual spreadsheets and uploads, including one-off payments, LOA adjustments, SPIFFs, new hire setup, and license management.
  • Complete monthly and quarterly commission processing tasks accurately and on schedule.
  • Identify discrepancies, data issues, and process gaps, and escalate them to Sales Compensation leadership.
  • Respond to commission inquiries within defined response times and follow up through resolution.
  • Work with Payroll, Sales Operations, and Finance to obtain inputs and resolve open items.
  • Document processes, decisions, and exceptions to support handoff at the end of the term.

Experience

  • Professional fluency in written and spoken English, as all work is conducted in English.

  • Advanced Excel skills, including complex formulas, pivot tables, data validation, and reconciliations.

  • Proven ability to manage multiple deadlines and own deliverables through completion.

  • Clear, proactive, written and verbal communication with internal stakeholders.

  • Experience in sales operations, revenue operations, sales compensation, finance, or payroll.
