Perform & Pay is a performance and reward
consultancy established in late 2021
“For years in our own daily work we had experienced that there is a need for performance and reward consultancy who has experience on how operations really take place in global companies. We decided to establish Perform & Pay providing services for companies with or without their own performance and reward professionals. Providing an opportunity to have a partner to talk and work with or an opportunity to have a Compensation VP/Director in use without a need to recruit one.”
