  • Monitor operational KPIs, identify process gaps, and implement scalable solutions to improve accuracy and efficiency.
  • Collaborate on key cross-functional initiatives, including provider compensation workflows and system enhancements.

Compliance & Team Management

  • Ensure full compliance with federal, state, and local payroll laws, as well as internal policies and audit requirements.
  • Provide direct leadership, coaching, and performance management to payroll managers and operational staff.
  • Serve as the primary operational liaison between internal executive stakeholders and external payroll service providers.

Qualifications

Required

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business, Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
  • Experience: 9+ years of progressive payroll experience in a complex, multi-state environment.
  • Leadership: 5+ years of direct leadership experience, including managing managers or leading multi-tiered teams.
  • Technical & Compliance: Deep knowledge of multi-state payroll regulations, statutory compliance, and tax requirements.
  • System Experience: Demonstrated success leading or supporting payroll system implementations, integrations, or shared service transformations.
  • Skills: Strong communication skills with a proven ability to present complex data and strategy to executive leadership.

Preferred

  • Experience with Oracle Payroll or similar enterprise platforms.
  • Background in healthcare or another highly regulated, complex industry.
  • Certified Payroll Professional (CPP) designation.
  • Hands-on experience transitioning outsourced payroll models to an in-house shared service framework.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base Salary: $145,000 – $160,000 annually (commensurate with experience).
  • Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance options, plus mental health services and wellness programs.
  • Financial Security: 401(k) retirement plan with company match, along with life, accident, and short/long-term disability coverage.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
