Our client, a leading global organisation, is seeking multiple highly experienced Payroll Specialists to join their team on a contract basis. These critical roles will primarily focus on managing high-volume payroll activities related to employee transitions, with the potential for extension into 2026 and exposure to other payroll activities.

About the role

• Ensure the accurate and timely processing of complex payroll calculations for employee transitions, including terminations, for Australian and New Zealand payrolls.
• Utilise your in-depth expertise in SuccessFactors Employee Central (EC) and Employee Central Payroll (ECP) for all processing.
• Handle high volumes of transactions while ensuring strict compliance with all relevant legislation and internal policies.
• Collaborate closely with the Australia Payroll Manager to get up to speed quickly on specific entitlements, systems, and processes.
• While the primary focus is on employee transitions, there is potential to leverage your broader payroll skills on other activities, subject to processing volumes.

About you

• Multiple years of essential Australian payroll processing experience is a must-have.
• Significant, proven experience calculating and processing complex employee transition payments using SuccessFactors EC/ECP is essential.
• Comfortable working with a high volume of similar tasks, demonstrating exceptional attention to detail and accuracy.
• Strong analytical skills to navigate complex calculations and entitlements.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to seamlessly integrate into a new team.
• Experience with PeopleSoft HR and Global Payroll from an HR/Payroll role is desirable.
• Must be able to start work in approximately one month (mid-August), as capacity for training will be limited beyond late August.

The benefits

• Competitive contract rates will be discussed on a case-by-case basis, reflecting your experience.
• Opportunity to join a leading global organisation on a high-impact project.
• Flexible work-from-home policy applies by default; remote candidates outside Melbourne will be considered with justification.
• Potential for contract extension into 2026.
• Work alongside experienced Payroll Specialists in a supportive environment.
