Business Analyst, Compensation & Reporting (PHL)

About the Role

At Wyndham Destinations, our vision is simple and bold: to put the world on vacation. Behind that vision is a highly disciplined, data‑driven approach to performance and reward.

As a Business Analyst – Compensation & Reporting, you will play a critical role in ensuring our incentive programs are accurate, transparent, financially sound, and trusted. This is not a junior or purely transactional role—it requires strong business judgment, technical expertise, and confidence engaging with senior stakeholders across the business.

You will join a small, specialist team responsible for calculating and paying weekly, monthly, and annual bonuses to a diverse population across the organisation, with a reporting line to management in Clark.

Key Relationships

You will work cross‑functionally and globally, partnering closely with:

• Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A)
• Compensation & Benefits
• Sales & Sales Administration
• Marketing
• Finance
• Payroll & HR
• Resort & Operational Management Teams

Strong stakeholder management and the ability to explain complex calculations clearly are essential.

Our Values – The HEART of Wyndham

Everything we do is guided by our values:

• Hospitality – We treat everyone like family
• Engagement – We deliver on our promises
• Accountability – We own our impact and results
• Respect – We consider others in every interaction
• Teamwork – We succeed together

This role requires someone who not only understands these values, but lives them daily—especially when dealing with sensitive financial and compensation data.
