Job Description

Payroll Operations & Oversight

• Oversee end-to-end preparation, processing, distribution, reconciliation, and reporting of payroll for all client employees across weekly, fortnightly, and monthly cycles in Australia and New Zealand.

• Ensure accuracy and timeliness of wage calculations, payments, and deductions; validate payroll inputs - timesheets, benefits, deductions, and bonuses - and monitor adherence to company policy.

• Manage end-to-end termination processing - final pay, Employment Termination Payments (ETPs), redundancy, leave encashments, and statutory reporting - and administer leave entitlements accurately (annual, personal, long service, parental, termination-related).

• Address and resolve complex payroll issues and escalations, drawing on deep knowledge of AU and NZ regional nuances, regulatory tasks, and country-wise deliverables.

Compliance, Governance & Audit

• Ensure end-to-end compliance with Australian payroll legislation - Fair Work Act, National Employment Standards, Modern Awards, Enterprise Agreements, and applicable federal and state regulations - alongside New Zealand requirements.

• Interpret and apply Modern Awards and Enterprise Agreements accurately: classifications, overtime, penalty rates, allowances, shift loadings, public-holiday payments, and leave entitlements.

• Manage PAYG withholding, Single Touch Payroll (STP) reporting and annual finalisation, Superannuation Guarantee and SuperStream compliance, and payroll tax across states and territories - registrations, reconciliations, lodgments, and statutory reporting.

• Monitor and implement legislative and regulatory change (Fair Work, ATO, Superannuation, Wage Theft, Payroll Tax, state obligations), and validate employee and contractor classifications to mitigate misclassification risk.

• Maintain payroll governance, internal controls, and audit processes; keep records, employee data, and payslips to legislative standards and audit-ready; and coordinate with client auditors and regulatory bodies during audits.

Leadership & Team Oversight

• Lead and mentor a multi-tier payroll organisation - managers, payroll analysts, and specialists - building a culture of accountability, service excellence, and continuous improvement.

• Set SLAs, KPIs, and quality benchmarks, allocate resources to meet deadlines and service levels, and coach the team on performance.

• Manage cyclical performance reporting, internal and external, with continuous-improvement plans, and give new team members a strong onboarding experience.

• Liaise with Quality Coaches on quality-assurance monitoring for consistent feedback, and support the team on their goals and capability.

Systems, Process & Data Integrity

• Manage payroll systems and software, ensuring data integrity and security across all systems and processes.

• Drive automation, streamlining, and process enhancement to improve efficiency, and collaborate with client IT and HRIS teams on system upgrades and integrations.

Stakeholder Collaboration

• Partner with HR on compensation, benefits, and employee-relations matters, and communicate pay policies and procedures clearly.

• Work with Finance to reconcile payroll accounts and support budgeting and forecasting, and provide payroll insights and reports to senior leadership.

• Collaborate with other Service Leads on day-to-day requirements and future improvements or projects.

Strategic Initiatives

• Develop payroll policies and procedures aligned with organisational goals, and lead projects across payroll transformation, mergers and acquisitions, or expansion.

• Keep employees satisfied through transparent, responsive payroll operations.

• Performance Management

  • Launch and track annual performance review cycles and leadership communications.
  • Manage executive status reporting, Smartsheet access, and assessment guide updates.
  • Maintain performance frameworks and competency models to support talent growth.

• Compensation & Benefits

  • Continuously evaluate salary structure: benchmarking, address compression/legacy ranges, remove unnecessary ranges and improve governance/templates.
  • Maintain and update salary governance documentation in alignment with Payroll; identify pain points and implement efficiencies
  • Coordinate vendor, procurement, and works council interactions; inform payroll and mobility teams.

• Governance, Data & Compliance

  • Ensure adherence to SLAs, internal controls, and SOPs; maintain audit-ready documentation.
  • Conduct regular data audits, resolve discrepancies, and act as control point for escalations.
  • Ensure GDPR-compliant data processing and support audit remediation.

• Process Improvement

  • Oversee process documentation, template management, ad-hoc process changes and removal of inefficient templates; ensure smooth month-end and contractual operations.
  • Identify automation opportunities and drive initiatives to reduce manual errors.
