Payroll Compliance

• Collaborate across functions to drive real change.
• Excellent remuneration and WFH flexibility

Now fully owned by one of Australia's largest retail groups, our client operates independently while benefiting from the scale, technology, and innovation of its parent company. This strategic backing enables the organisation to continually evolve and deliver best-in-class service across the foodservice sector. What truly sets this organisation apart is its genuine commitment to payroll compliance. The executive team places high importance on getting it right - not just for regulatory reasons, but because it reflects their integrity and care for their people. Their approach is proactive and forward-thinking, and you'll be working closely with a highly respected Head of Payroll Projects - a leader known for their deep expertise and outstanding interpersonal skills. After the initial training period, our client offers the opportunity to WFH 2 days per week.
