Job Description
Senior Payroll Specialist Do you love Payroll & HR, but also want a life outside of it? We can help with that!
myHR Partner has a remote full-time Senior Payroll Specialist role available, working with clients across a range of industries and mentoring the rest of our payroll team along the way. It's a good time to join our growing remote team - we've been named a Best Places to Work in PA for three years running, and we're an Inc. 5000 fastest-growing company!
If you're the person your team already comes to with the tricky payroll question, and you're ready to bring that expertise to a portfolio of clients instead of just one, we'd love to hear from you!
What you’ll do Our clients depend on us for accurate, on-time payroll and benefits administration. Each client keeps their own vendor of choice, so no two days look the same. Your day-to-day may include:
Work across multiple payroll and HR tech platforms - we currently use ADP, Paylocity, Workday, iSolved, Bamboo, Gusto and more
Own payroll processing for an assigned portfolio of clients, working directly with them on payroll-related needs
Have the tough conversations when a client's payroll practices put them at risk, and help them get back on track
Serve as the main point of contact for payroll information during audits, benefits census requests, and workers' comp reviews
Manage payroll compliance work: year-end tasks, state-specific requirements, and everything in between
Support employee benefits administration, reporting, and payroll setup as needed
Lead payroll implementations, transitions, and other large-scale projects
Build and run custom payroll reports, and conduct payroll audits
Serve as a payroll subject matter expert for the team, coaching and mentoring other Specialists
What you need to thrive in this role
Align with our Core Values: Embrace learning & growth; deliver a five-star experience; do what you say and own what you do; foster empathy and respect; think beyond the task
Experience: 5+ years of payroll experience working at an independent level, with solid multi-state experience. Bonus if you've handled California or New York!
Leadership: You've had hard conversations before and you're comfortable having more. You like helping teammates grow in their roles, and you're looking to grow further into that kind of role.
Client-Facing Experience: We love it if you've worked directly with clients before, but we don't want to overlook great talent if the rest of your background is strong, we're flexible here!
Location: We offer remote positions within the Eastern and Central time zones only. Sorry West Coast - it's not you, it's us.
Schedule: This is a full-time, salaried, W2 role. Our core business hours are 8:30am–5:00pm EST, Monday through Friday, with Mondays-Wednesdays tending to be the heaviest days across our payroll team.
Software Skills: Well-versed in MS Office; the more payroll platforms you've touched, the better. ADP, Paylocity, and Workday experience are especially useful.
Adaptability: You're good at building relationships and adjusting your style across a diverse client base.
Equality & Inclusion: We believe deeply in diversity and in all the things that make people different from one another.
