Their challenge
It was important that any solution would support the agility and growth aspirations of Many Pets, balancing rigour with flexibility.Our solution
We worked closely with the HR team and the Senior Leadership Team to firstly implement a job evaluation framework to size roles and understand the organisation shape of the business. Evaluate is a robust analytical framework without the complexity of some other frameworks and therefore provides the rigour without a lengthy evaluation process that would work against a fast-moving business. The second phase to the project was to benchmark their roles to understand how the ManyPets employee deal compares with the external market. The outputs were delivered through PayLab, our cloud-based pay insights tool. This brought the information to life, presenting it in a visual way which was easier to absorb and enabled the senior team to easily share the outcomes with their team. The job evaluation framework and the external benchmarking then fed into the pay review process, giving confidence to the Senior Leadership Team and employees that pay decisions were fair, consistent, and routed in data.The outcome
The project provided a strong foundation on which Many Pets could base reward decisions going forward. Through the combination of Evaluate and PayLab, Many Pets have the software to ensure future roles are sized objectively and that pay is set in line with the market and their pay stance. Both Evaluate and PayLab can be easily updated as the business grows therefore supporting the need to recruit at pace in line with the ambitious growth aspirations. The additional insight provided by Evaluate into organisational shape and design will help Many Pets to think through what their organisational structure needs to look like both now and in the future as the business grows.
