ADP is hiring a Payroll Business Partner I. If you are ready to join a company that offers career advancement opportunities throughout your career journey, award‑winning training, a world‑class service environment, and an inclusive culture of collaboration and belonging, this may be an opportunity for you.

As a Payroll Business Partner I servicing ADP’s Professional Employer Organization (PEO) solution, you will provide specialized support and guidance to clients, acting as the primary client liaison for all employer‑level concerns and delivering first‑level telephone support across several complex functional areas. You will help ensure that PEO clients remain compliant with all federal, state, and local employment and tax laws by monitoring, evaluating, and directing client actions.

This role requires you to act as a trusted payroll advisor, providing timely and accurate advice around payroll compliance and delivering payroll solutions that positively impact the client’s business, foster retention and growth, troubleshoot challenges, educate clients, develop partnerships, and demonstrate deep value in the ADP client relationship.

What you can expect on a typical day:

• Be a trusted advisor and problem solver – use breadth of expertise to resolve time‑sensitive client issues and identify solutions.
