- Drive process improvement, standardization and automation to enhance accuracy, efficiency and scalability (document SOPs, strengthen controls, reduce defects).
- Collaborate with HRIS/People Ops to improve data quality, integrations and change control; support vendor management and SLAs.
What you’ll bring
- APAC payroll experience (or strong domestic payroll foundations with the ambition to step into international scope).
- 2-3 years minimum APAC experience is advantageous
- Proven end to end payroll execution with impeccable attention to detail and data integrity.
- Intermediate Excel skills (lookups, pivots, reconciliation techniques); comfort with large datasets.
- Experience with payroll/HRIS platforms (e.g., ADP, SAP, Workday, Oracle, Ceridian) and third party providers; strong vendor/stakeholder management.
- Practical knowledge of international payroll compliance (tax, social security, benefits, reporting) and working in fast paced, high growth environments.
