- Plan for resilience: Safeguard continuity through proactive planning and risk mitigation.
- Fuel improvement: Seek smarter ways of working—streamline processes and lead innovation across payroll and HR.

**What Makes You a Great Fit**
- Inspiring leadership grounded in integrity, with a proven track record of guiding teams through values-led decision-making.
- Hands-on experience with leading payroll systems such as Ellipse, SAP, or Oracle—you're confident navigating complex tech environments.
- Expert knowledge of Australian payroll legislation, with strong understanding of payroll accounting and financial reporting.
- Depth of experience managing payroll in large, complex organisations—including interpreting awards, managing shift-based rosters, and processing timesheets.
- A mindset for improvement, with a history of successfully delivering system and process enhancements that drive real business value.
- Strong qualifications, ideally a Payroll Management Certificate, or a relevant degree in Finance or Accounting.
