You'll review remuneration and expense submissions for accuracy, reasonableness, and policy compliance, providing guidance when required.
You'll support audits by preparing working papers, responding to auditor requests, and maintaining payroll-related records and documentation.
You'll generate reports and analyses for leadership, committees, government agencies, and service providers.
You'll act as a trusted resource to internal teams, supporting best practices and providing guidance on payroll processes and compliance requirements.
