Global Payroll Compliance Specialist

Sydney, Australia Rippling Full time

**About Rippling**

Rippling is the first way for businesses to manage all of their HR & IT—payroll, benefits, computers, apps, and more—in one unified workforce platform.

By connecting every business system to one source of truth for employee data, businesses can automate all of the manual work they normally need to do to make employee changes. Take onboarding, for example. With Rippling, you can just click a button and set up a new employees’ payroll, health insurance, work computer, and third-party apps—like Slack, Zoom, and Office 365—all within 90 seconds.

Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.4B from the world's top investors—including Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund, Sequoia, Bedrock, and Greenoaks—and was named one of America's best startup employers by Forbes (#12 out of 500).

**About The Role**

We're looking for an experienced compliance specialist to join Rippling’s Global Payroll Operations team. We are rapidly expanding Rippling to serve the needs of employees and employers all over the world. Our Global Payroll Operations team plays a critical role in ensuring the success of our global payroll products, which are natively built and fully integrated with Rippling’s broader suite of products.

This is an exciting role that requires significant cross-departmental engagement across Legal, Product, Sales, and Engineering, with a major impact on the product and customer experience.

**What you will do**
- Define earnings leave calculations according to APAC regulations, build test cases and work closely with engineering to ensure accurate implementation
- Perform payroll comparison analyses, and conduct comprehensive risk reviews to verify accuracy and recommend corrective actions
- Partner with R&D functions to ensure compliance requirements are prioritized in the product roadmap
- Partner closely with government agencies; track ongoing updates to Australian labour laws and ensure Rippling’s product remains on the cutting edge of those changes

**What you will need**
- Demonstrated knowledge of APAC labour laws and payroll tax requirements, particularly with payroll calculations, rules and event-based leave types
- Certification with Australian Payroll Association (APA) and New Zealand Payroll Practitioners Association (NZPPA) strongly preferred
- Experience in identifying payroll compliance risks, accuracy verification, implementing controls, and conducting agency communication to resolve matters
- Prior exposure to local authority audits and investigations, with strong record-keeping, methodology usage, and resolution of issues
- Strong project management and organisational skills: high attention to detail with excellent work product, time management, and project execution
- Proven track record of success managing multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
- Stellar communication and presentation skills; the ability to simplify complex concepts for any audience
- Experience with Google Suite or Microsoft Office, especially Docs/Sheets/Excel, for data analysis and task organisation; familiarity with Salesforce, JIRA, and Confluence a plus
- Ability to overlap with U.S. hours (both Eastern and Pacific time zone - EST/PST)
- Required: Proficient in English; written and verbal communication skills

**Additional Information**

Rippling highly values having employees working in-office to foster a collaborative work environment and company culture. For office-based employees (employees who live within a 40 mile radius of a Rippling office), Rippling considers working in the office, at least three days a week under current policy, to be an essential function of the employee's role.
