Who We Are

The Farmer’s Dog was created to radically improve the $90 billion global pet food industry — starting with a subscription service that sends freshly-made food directly to customers’ doors. Long term, our aim is to simplify every part of pet care, bettering the lives of the animals who make our lives better. Backed by the early investors of Warby Parker, Dollar Shave Club, and Sweetgreen, we've raised over $100M in funding and seek to build a company as healthy as the dogs we feed.

Join The Farmer’s Dog team as we continue to figure out ways of bringing peace of mind to customers, health to their companions, and much-needed change to the way people feed and care for their pets.

Where You'll Come In

The Benefits and Compensation Manager is a crucial member of the Human Operations Team at The Farmer’s Dog and is instrumental in implementing competitive and equitable compensation structures, maintaining and improving the company stock program, and crafting company benefit plans.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a desire to own and develop a function that has a deep impact across the company to attract, retain, and build top-tier talent.

Reporting to the Senior Manager of Human Operations, the TRM will have significant cross-functional exposure with finance, legal, and C-Suite executives as well as all department leads.

How You'll Make An Impact

  • Own the compensation function by building and maintaining career architectures, job banding, and pathing consistent with market practices.
  • Assist in the implementation of programs and systems from the ground up (401k, HRIS, etc).
  • Work collaboratively across the Humans and Finance teams to run our stock program.
  • Lead, evaluate, and coordinate all incentive plans, including benefits open enrollment, and ongoing new employee benefits enrollment.
  • Continuously evaluate the efficiency of our rewards programs to verify they are aligned with our business and talent strategies and assess market trends to make recommendations for changes, as appropriate.

We're Excited About You Because

  • You have 8+ years of experience working with HR processes and policies for a multi-state employer.
  • You have progressive compensation experience.
  • You have demonstrable experience with benefits administration and related HRIS and/or ERP systems, as well as stock-related software.
  • You are highly skilled in Excel/Google Sheets and PowerPoint/Google Slides.
  • You like digging into the numbers and enjoy capturing and interpreting data to advise your decisions.
  • You are meticulously organized, with a fine attention to detail, and a skillful communications approach at all levels.
  • You believe "problems are treasures" and are open to innovative ways to solving problems from first principles.
  • You are constantly seeking better in all processes.
  • Experience in a hyper-growth startup, a plus.

  • Market-competitive compensation and equity packages
  • Comprehensive Healthcare, Dental, and Vision
  • 12 week paid parental leave

What’s the vibe like in the office?

It's so refreshing to be able to walk into my job knowing that I'm truly making a difference. Every person on our team believes in our product and mission, so motivation and passion comes organically. Did I mention that our office is full of dogs?

What projects are you most excited about?

We are changing the way people think about pet food by delivering fresh, healthy meals for dogs in personalized meal plans.

What is your vision for the company?

The Farmer's Dog is on a mission to change the way people think about feeding their pets. Our goal is to educate & give people the tools to give their pets the healthiest diet. We believe that once the world is educated about fresh food, people will stop feeding their pets processed food and the life expectancy for the entire species will increase.

What does your typical day look like?

As CEO, I spend my days making the hard decisions, hiring the best people, protecting the team, and making sure the company is financially sound. I also get to choose which dogs are allowed in the office (all of them).
