Lead payroll year-end processing, reconciliations, reporting, and statutory filings
Prepare, reconcile, distribute, and file annual T4 slips and related CRA reporting
Maintain accurate and confidential employee payroll records in accordance with applicable privacy legislation and organizational requirements
Review and audit employee timesheets to ensure accuracy, completeness, and compliance with payroll policies
Respond to and resolve employee inquiries regarding payroll, timesheets, deductions, benefits, and expense reimbursements
Ensure payroll processes and records meet internal and external audit requirements, providing supporting documentation and reports as needed
Manage relationships with external payroll service providers, monitoring performance and ensuring agreed service levels are maintained
Serve as a payroll and HRMS subject matter expert, supporting system functionality, data integrity, troubleshooting, and user inquiries
Collaborate with Finance, IT, and Operations leadership to identify opportunities to improve payroll services, reporting, and system capabilities
Translate organizational payroll requirements into effective HRMS processes, system configurations, and operational procedures
Review existing payroll controls, workflows, and procedures to identify opportunities for automation, efficiency improvements, and reduced manual processing
Recommend and implement payroll best practices, internal control enhancements, and process improvements
Develop and maintain accurate payroll procedures, process documentation, and supporting reference materials
Define and monitor relevant Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure payroll service quality, accuracy, and operational effectiveness
Provide training and guidance to employees and internal stakeholders on HRMS functionality and expense submission systems as required
Support ongoing payroll-related projects, system enhancements, and organizational change initiatives

Qualifications:

5–7 years of progressively responsible payroll experience, including comprehensive knowledge of Canadian payroll administration and compliance
Certified Payroll Manager (CPM) designation, or Payroll Compliance Practitioner (PCP) certification with progress toward the CPM designation, or equivalent qualifications
Completion of relevant professional payroll courses and membership in good standing with a recognized Canadian payroll association
3–5 years of experience working with Human Resources Management Systems (HRMS)
Experience with Ultimate Software (UltiPro/UKG Pro) is considered an asset
Demonstrated experience administering full-cycle payroll for both salaried and hourly employees
Strong knowledge of Canadian payroll legislation, statutory deductions, taxable benefits, pension administration, and year-end reporting requirements
Proven experience with T4 preparation, payroll reconciliations, statutory remittances, and payroll-related financial reporting
Experience working in a unionized environment is required, including interpreting and applying collective agreement provisions
Strong understanding of payroll systems, methods, internal controls, compliance requirements, and audit procedures
Experience managing payroll-related employee expenses, reimbursements, allowances, and benefit deductions
Demonstrated ability to maintain accurate and confidential employee information in accordance with applicable privacy requirements
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate discrepancies and resolve complex payroll issues
Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Excel and strong working knowledge of other Microsoft Office applications
Experience identifying and implementing payroll process improvements, automation opportunities, and system enhancements
Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail, with a strong commitment to accuracy, compliance, and timely completion of work
Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain payroll-related information clearly to employees and stakeholders
Excellent client service skills, with experience responding to employee inquiries and resolving sensitive or complex issues professionally
Proven ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships with colleagues, management, and external service providers
Strong collaboration and conflict resolution skills, with the ability to work effectively across multiple departments
Self-motivated and results-oriented, with the ability to manage competing priorities, meet deadlines, and work independently
