- Provide expert support across payroll systems and workflows, including Workday to Preceda integration, system administration, and troubleshooting to resolve issues efficiently.
- Ensure legislative and audit compliance, staying informed of regulatory changes, meeting audit requirements, and managing year-end processes such as reconciliations and issuing payment summaries.
- Deliver specialist payroll advice and training, supporting team development, coaching staff, and assisting customers with EBA interpretation and payroll-related queries.
- Produce accurate and timely reporting, including termination and redundancy calculations, general ledger reconciliations, and statutory reports (e.g., ABS), while maintaining current SOPs.
