About the Role:
We're looking for a Sales Compensation Analyst to join our Revenue Operations team. As a individual contributor, you will serve as a hands-on operator, subject matter expert, and strategic partner to our sales organization — owning end-to-end compensation administration while independently shaping the compensation programs and operational frameworks that drive Gusto's growth.
This is a high-visibility role at the intersection of Sales, Finance, and Revenue Operations. You'll bring deep expertise in sales compensation administration, advanced analytical capabilities, and a track record of building scalable programs that are fair, accurate, and motivating. You'll operate with a high degree of autonomy alongside the Head of Sales Compensation — driving plan administration, contributing to plan design for assigned segments, and setting the operational and analytical standard for the team. You'll leverage AI tools to push the boundaries of what our team can deliver.
About the Team:
The Sales Compensation team at Gusto sits within the Revenue Operations organization and serves as the backbone of how Gusto's sales force is motivated, rewarded, and aligned to company growth. We are a small, high-impact team with outsized visibility — our work touches every quota-carrying role across the company and directly influences how Gusto attracts, retains, and drives performance from top sales talent.
Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day:
- Own sales compensation administration for assigned teams — execute accurate, on-time commission calculations, payment processing, crediting, draws, clawbacks, and dispute resolution each pay cycle; Serve
