- Support the Payroll Systems Lead to ensure Oracle is capable of processing day to day pay runs.

- Work with the Payroll Systems Specialist to ensure Oracle is configured for the business to meets its taxation, superannuation, entitlement and other legislative and statutory obligations.
- Assist in project related data cleansing activities and audits of Oracle Payroll, to ensure compliance with legislative requirements in respect of leave accruals, PAYG, superannuation, STP and payroll tax.
- In conjunction with the Payroll Services Manager establish a culture of high performance, professionalism and continuous improvement that encourages individuals to identify opportunities and solutions to improve service delivery, achieve outcomes and meet established deadlines.
