6 days ago


Brendale, Queensland, Australia Vision Made Co Pty Ltd Full time $100,000 - $120,000 per year
About the Role

We're on the lookout for a highly experienced, compliance-focused Payroll Specialist to join a fast-paced team in Brendale on an initial 8-week contract. This is a make-an-impact-fast role where you'll take complete ownership of payroll — and if you're the unicorn we're looking for, there's potential for a permanent offer.

You'll be responsible for full-function payroll — and you'll also lead a clean-up of Xero, reviewing and refining pay codes, leave types, and reporting categories to ensure everything is configured compliantly and accurately. This is a role for someone who knows Xero inside and out and isn't afraid to dig deep.


What You'll Be Doing
  • Manage end-to-end payroll in Xero (single entity) with total accuracy and ownership
  • Audit and clean up Xero pay codes, earnings categories, and leave types to ensure compliance
  • Ensure alignment with Fair Work, ATO, STP, superannuation, and payroll tax requirements
  • Identify and recommend improvements to payroll processes and system configurations

What You'll Bring
  • Extensive payroll experience in Australian businesses (5+ years preferred)
  • Expert-level Xero Payroll knowledge — must be confident reviewing and configuring the platform
  • Deep understanding of compliance, tax, Fair Work, super, and payroll legislation
  • Meticulous attention to detail and the ability to operate independently
  • Bonus: background in FMCG, manufacturing, or product-based environments

Why You'll Love It
  • Immediate start in Brendale (with free on-site parking)
  • Temp contract with real potential to transition into a permanent position
  • Flexible work environment with great culture and people
  • Make a real impact improving systems and ensuring compliance
