Our Services
Job Evaluation & Grading Consulting Services
Helping employers back their pay-related decisions through data-led job evaluation and grading.
Employers evaluate jobs for a number of reasons, including to address issues over equal pay and equal value, understand new job design after organisational change, or improve recruitment and retention.
The job evaluation process can be complex as it involves working out a systematic method for assessing a wide range of jobs to make decisions about their relative value. It is used as a consistent approach to form the basis for a fair pay system, role hierarchy and job grading structure.
Salary Benchmarking & Structuring
Base salary is the most visible part of someone’s reward package. A lot of the focus in reward management goes into ensuring that salaries are set and kept at the right level to attract, retain and motivate talent.
thinkPeople has been assisting its clients in the private and public sector in Kenya and the region to understand how their salaries and other cash compensation elements compare to the market – and what to do with this information.
Our team have worked with and developed salary surveys conducted assessments of pay competitiveness, and advised on the results of these analyses.
Non Executive Director Surveys / Fee Reviews
