About the Company
Our client is a well-established organisation that has grown significantly through acquisition, now employing over 1,000 staff across multiple states. With this growth comes complexity-and that's where you come in. They are undertaking a dedicated project to migrate long service leave data into a new Payroll and Time & Attendance system, and need an experienced payroll professional to get the job done right.
About the Role
Working under the guidance of the Payroll Manager, you will play a hands-on role in converting and reconciling long service leave entitlements for 1,000 employees. This will involve:
- Extrapolating timesheet data from multiple payroll systems across different states
- Converting calculations from hours to weeks for migration into the new system
- Handling both straightforward and complex cases, depending on service history and legacy employer arrangements
- Investigating and verifying data, including paper-based records
- Applying the correct long service leave codes with accuracy and compliance in mind
About You
We're looking for someone who knows their way around payroll-but more importantly, someone with solid, practical knowledge of long service leave and how to interpret entitlements. You will bring:
- Demonstrated payroll experience
- Strong understanding of long service leave legislation and entitlements
- High attention to detail with investigative skills for legacy and paper-based data
- Ability to work independently while following direction from the Payroll Manager
- Confidence in managing data integrity across multiple payroll systems
The Benefits
- 10-week contract with immediate start
- Flexible start and finish times-work your 7.6 hours when it suits you
- Work-from-home Mondays and Tuesdays
- Based in South Brisbane
- Opportunity to work on a high-impact project in a growing business
