Compliance, Governance, and Risk Program Manager

Our sellers are key to how customers and partners understand Microsoft’s products and strategies, but how do we align the conversations of thousands of sellers with each other and with the company’s strategy?  Making sure that the sellers are having the right conversations at the right time is key to the company’s success, and the Incentive Compensation team connects strategy to seller behavior in one of the most important ways: by determining how sellers get paid.

The Incentive Compensation Operations & Regional Delivery Team is a part of the Worldwide Incentive Compensation group (WWIC).  The group’s mission is to Enable Strategy, Motivate Sellers, Reward Results.  In pursuit of this mission, the team designs and implements variable incentive-based compensation plans for more than 25,000 sellers, sales leaders and consultants across Microsoft. We are experts in Incentive Compensation at Microsoft, responsible for aligning incentive plans and targets (quotas) to motivate seller behavior and drive the company's strategies.

The Compliance, Governance, and Risk Program Manager will focus on leading the design and implementation of governance frameworks across WWIC, ensuring alignment with Microsoft’s Trust Code, internal policies, and external regulatory requirements. Represent WWIC in Microsoft-wide compliance forums and rhythm of business (ROBs), ensuring Incentive Compensation specific needs are embedded in enterprise compliance cycles.

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
