  8. Communicate/present findings to stakeholders, including Payroll Services/Payroll teams, Compliance team, Industrial Relations, Internal Audit, and senior management.
  9. Serve as a subject matter expert on compliance-related matters within Payroll.

  4. Application of robust payroll, industrial relations, and financial control frameworks.
  5. Value Stream Analysis and Process Mapping.
  6. Critical analysis and reporting skills, exceptional attention to detail, and excellent writing skills.
  7. Ability to effectively manage competing priorities to tight deadlines.
  8. Ability to effectively identify and manage risks, with the skills to understand impacts and provide mitigation strategies.
  9. Experience in supporting effective change in a multifaceted people environment.
