Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Rippling Full time $80,000 - $120,000 per year

About Rippling
Rippling gives businesses one place to run HR, IT, and Finance. It brings together all of the workforce systems that are normally scattered across a company, like payroll, expenses, benefits, and computers. For the first time ever, you can manage and automate every part of the employee lifecycle in a single system.

Take onboarding, for example. With Rippling, you can hire a new employee anywhere in the world and set up their payroll, corporate card, computer, benefits, and even third-party apps like Slack and Microsoft 365—all within 90 seconds.

Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.85B 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)

We prioritise candidate safety. Please be aware that official communication will only be sent from addresses.

About The Role

  • Create content and documentation to cover the existing product behaviour, update for changes and build FAQs to support internal enablement
  • Analyse support interactions to build a POV on the quality of the support interactions
  • Interface with the country Product Manager to share support volume trends, drivers of bad customer interactions, and compliance issues
  • Act as a resource to Customer Support Specialists on regionally nuanced interactions for your country of expertise
  • Step into escalated customer interactions to resolve issues by leveraging platform and industry expertise

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on payroll experience in Australia and New Zealand, preferably in a payroll provider, HR software company, or in-house payroll function (e.g., SAP, ADP, Workday, or similar).
  • Deep knowledge of Australian and New Zealand payroll regulations, including PAYG tax, Superannuation contributions, KiwiSaver and other statutory requirements.
  • Strong understanding of payroll processing, wage components, statutory deductions, and compliance reporting.
  • Experience with payroll compliance audits and handling payroll-related inquiries from regulatory authorities (e.g., ATO, Fair Work Ombudsman, Superannuation funds).
