Gather market data. Identify surveys with your desired comparators
Identify benchmark jobs. Benchmark jobs are those that are representative of roles found across many organizations – standard roles such as Manager
Measure your market position. There are several ways to do this. If you have a lot of benchmark jobs, tabulate the average of all of the roles in the same internal level or grade. Weighted averages incorporating number of incumbents associated with each survey data point is a common approach.
