    About the Role

    We are seeking an experienced Payroll Manager to lead our payroll function and ensure the accurate, timely, and compliant delivery of payroll services across a diverse, multi-site aged care workforce.

    Reporting to the Financial Controller, this key leadership role is responsible for managing end-to-end payroll operations and leading a small, dedicated team. The Payroll Manager ensures compliance with relevant legislation, modern awards, and enterprise agreements, while promoting service excellence, continuous improvement, and strong internal controls.
    • Oversee the full payroll function, ensuring timely and accurate processing across multiple sites and employee groups.
    • Interpret and apply relevant industrial instruments, including modern awards, enterprise agreements, and the Fair Work and Aged Care Acts.
    • Lead, coach, and support the payroll team to build capability and maintain a high standard of service and compliance.
    • Collaborate with People Services and operational teams to resolve payroll queries, clarify entitlements, and improve staff access to payroll information.
    • Ensure accurate preparation and submission of payroll reports, superannuation, and statutory compliance obligations.
    • Work closely with Finance and external auditors to support payroll-related reporting and audit requirements.
    • Identify opportunities to enhance payroll processes, improve efficiency, and support broader organisational priorities.
    About You

    This role is suited to someone who is organised, collaborative, and thrives in a people-focused environment. Your ability to lead with clarity, provide trusted payroll advice, and support employees and managers across the organisation will be central to your success.
    • Proven experience managing end-to-end payroll in a complex, multi-site environment-ideally within aged care, health, or community services.
    • Strong knowledge of payroll legislation, including the Fair Work Act, Aged Care Act, and relevant industrial instruments.
    • A confident and supportive leader, able to guide teams and manage competing priorities in a fast-paced setting.
    • Detail-oriented with excellent problem-solving skills and a commitment to process improvement.
    • Able to communicate clearly and professionally with employees and stakeholders at all levels.
    • High standards of confidentiality, discretion, and accuracy.
    • Familiarity with payroll systems and reporting tools; experience with TechnologyOne and rostering platforms such as Humanforce is desirable but not essential.
    Candidates may be subject to a pre-employment medical assessment with the successful candidate requiring current NDIS worker clearance. In accordance with current health guidelines for the aged care sector, candidates are encouraged to have all recommended vaccinations.
