Senior Payroll Administrator

(Summary)

Reporting to the Payroll Manager, the Senior Payroll Administrator owns the control and audit function for payroll across Cementation USA and TNT, ensuring every employee across both entities is paid accurately, on time, and in compliance with applicable payroll tax law. The Senior Payroll Administrator reviews and approves HR-entered data, controls and audits each payroll run before it is finalized and maintains the integration between Paycom and JD Edwards (JDE) for general ledger and cost-accounting purposes.

This is an individual-contributor role with no supervisory or people-management responsibility; general FLSA and wage-and-hour compliance ownership resides with HR, and this role's own compliance accountability is limited to payroll taxation.

• Serve as a control point for each payroll run: audit pay calculations, hours, and deductions for accuracy before submission, including salaried, hourly, and prevailing wage/certified payroll populations where applicable.

• Audit garnishments, child support orders, tax levies, and other court-ordered deductions entered by HR for accuracy.
• Review and approve certified payroll reports for prevailing-wage or public-works engagements as required by contract or jurisdiction.
• Confirm readiness of all HR-entered data ahead of each payroll run, including off-cycle and bonus/incentive runs, for both entities.
