About the Role

At TravelPerk, we’re not just revolutionising the world of business travel—we’re redefining what it means to be a destination employer. Our people-first values are the foundation of our success, and we are dedicated to creating exceptional employee experiences.

As we grow rapidly, we’re looking for a Global Benefits Manager to ensure that our employees in the UK, Spain, Germany, and the US have access to the benefits that truly matter—programs that support their health, well-being, and future.

You’ll report directly to the Senior Director of Total Reward and have the autonomy to drive change, bring new ideas to the table, and collaborate with leaders across the company. If you’re passionate about creating meaningful, market-leading benefits, we’d love to meet you and tell you more about our plans!

What You’ll Be Doing

• Owning and elevating: Leading our benefits programs, ensuring they are competitive and aligned with what our employees truly care about.
• Spreading the word: Making sure employees know and value their benefits by driving engaging communication efforts—whether through Slack, email, or in-person events.
• Leading well-being initiatives: Managing global therapy and coaching programs that support employee health and happiness.
• Strategising with leadership: Identifying and proposing new benefits initiatives using market data and employee feedback.
• Planning for the future: Taking charge of global benefits cost forecasting, ensuring we budget wisely and plan ahead as we continue to scale.
• Cross-team collaboration: Working closely with People Operations and Payroll to seamlessly deliver benefits programs and ensure compliance across all regions.
• Acting as the go-to expert: Solving complex employee queries related to our global benefits.
• Keeping operations smooth: Managing relationships with benefits providers, negotiating contracts, and overseeing the processing of invoices for global vendors.

What We’re Looking For

• Global benefits experience with deep expertise in both European and US benefits landscapes.
• Proven experience with US benefit programs such as Health Plans, 401(k), and global wellness initiatives.
• Strong relationship-building and negotiation skills: You’ll be working with a variety of external vendors and brokers.
• A data-driven, analytical mindset: Ability to evaluate programs, propose changes, and forecast benefits costs.
• Experience in fast-growing environments, where creative thinking and strategic action are essential.
• A passion for improving the employee experience through health benefits, well-being programs, or new initiatives we haven’t thought of yet.

How We Work & Values

Our Vision is for a world where TravelPerk is the platform for human connection in real life (IRL). We take an IRL-first approach to work, where our team works together in person 3 days a week. As such, this role requires you to be within commuting distance of our Barcelona HQ or London office. We fundamentally believe in meeting in real life to improve connectivity, productivity, and creativity, ultimately making us a great workplace.

At TravelPerk, we prioritise experience and potential over academic qualifications for this role. We believe that talent and ability aren't always reflected in formal credentials.

We provide relocation assistance for specific roles. Please specify your need for this in your application, and we will evaluate the possibility on a case-by-case basis. English is our official office language, so we request that resumes be submitted in English for effective communication.

TravelPerk is a global company with a diverse customer base—, and we want to ensure that the people behind our product reflect that. We're an equal opportunity employer, meaning you're welcome at TravelPerk regardless of your appearance, where you're from, or anything else that makes you.
