About the role
We're on a journey to make StubHub a place people are proud to be from -not just proud to be at. Total Rewards is one of the most direct expressions of that commitment. How we pay people, how we structure equity, and how we design benefits sends a signal every single day about whether StubHub truly values what its people bring. Getting this right isn't just good HR, it's how we earn and keep trust. We are looking for a Head of Total Rewards who will build the compensation, benefits, and equity infrastructure that StubHub needs to win, as a talent destination, as a public company, and as a global marketplace. Our Total Rewards ecosystem needs a complete reimagination: a compensation philosophy grounded in transparency and equity, a benefits strategy that reflects who our employees actually are, an equity program that is meaningful and well understood, and the AI-powered tools and analytics to run it all with rigor and speed. This is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up -at a company with the scale, ambition, and resources to do it right. Reporting to the Chief Human Resources Officer, the Head of Total Rewards is a senior leadership role with both strategic scope and hands-on operational depth. This leader will own the design, rebuild, and ongoing evolution of StubHub's global compensation, benefits, and equity programs -serving as the primary advisor to the CHRO, CFO, and Compensation Committee of the Board on all rewards matters, while also rolling up their sleeves to build frameworks, run cycles, and get things done. The ecosystem you build will directly shape StubHub's ability to attract and retain the talent that powers this business.
