We're looking for a Payroll Specialist to join our People & Payroll team — a group that takes accuracy, compliance, and continuous improvement seriously across every jurisdiction we operate in.
You'll own the end-to-end payroll cycle for your assigned locations, working directly with outsourced payroll providers as their primary operational contact. Attention to detail matters here, but so does automation thinking and a genuine drive to make processes better. This isn't a role where you wait to be told what to fix.
You'll report to the Payroll Team Leader, who leads global payroll governance and strategy — giving you a clear structure and room to focus on what you do best: running payroll well.

enhance payroll accuracy and efficiency.
-
Support systems and process upgrades, automation initiatives, and change
management efforts.
