Compensation Study

The City of Asheville is seeking proposals for a compensation study to evaluate approximately 400 diverse job descriptions across exempt, non-exempt, civilian, and public safety roles. The study will include an external market assessment to compare current base salaries and supplements against industry, geographic, and peer benchmarks. The vendor will also analyze internal pay practices to pinpoint demographic disparities, compression issues, or equity gaps, and perform a comprehensive review of the City's overall salary and compensation structures. Key aspects of the job include: • Conducting an external market assessment • Analyzing internal pay practices • Performing a comprehensive review of the City's salary and compensation structures • Ensuring the compensation structure is scalable and legally compliant
