Your Responsibilities

You'll lead the administration and validation of multiple payroll cycles, ensuring compliance with legislative, regulatory, and organizational requirements.
You'll coordinate payroll processing activities with external payroll service providers, financial institutions, and internal stakeholders.
You'll prepare payroll journal entries, account reconciliations, source deduction remittances, year-end accruals, and T-slip reporting.
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.
