Immediate start - Potential Temporary to Permanent opportunity

Are you a payroll professional who loves the detail but wants to skip the button-pushing? We’re looking for a sharp, proactive Payroll Officer to own the pre and post-payroll functions, ensuring smooth, compliant, and accurate payroll outcomes for our diverse workforce.

What you’ll be doing:

- Pre-payroll prep: Award & EBA interpretation, manual calculations (e.g. higher duties, fixed-term contracts)

- Data accuracy: Validate and prepare all payroll inputs for our outsourced provider
- Liaison: Be the key contact for our external payroll processor, providing timely, clear, and accurate data
- Post-payroll: Review reports, resolve discrepancies, and support month-end reconciliation
- HR administration support

What you’ll bring:

- Solid understanding of awards and EBAs
- Strong attention to detail and manual calculation skills
- Experience in a payroll support role, ideally working with outsourced payroll providers
- Confidence navigating complex employment scenarios with accuracy and care
- Current Blue Card

Why join us?

- Skip the processing and focus on strategy, accuracy, and meaningful payroll support
- Work with a collaborative team that values accuracy, fairness, and impact
- Supportive leadership and a values-driven organisation

Ready to bring precision and clarity to payroll without the processing? Apply now and help us make payroll stress-free for everyone.
