If you’re confident navigating complex payroll environments and enjoy improving processes, this could be a great fit.

What You’ll Be Tackling

• Leading the consolidation of payroll into a single entity.
• Driving automation and payroll process improvements.
• Partnering with HR & Finance to enhance Time & Attendance workflows.
• Ensuring compliance, accurate reporting and timely submissions.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong payroll background in a fast‑paced, change‑heavy environment.
