We're looking for an experienced, strategic Payroll Manager to own payroll operations across our global workforce spanning North America, EMEA, and APAC. This isn't a back-office support role; it's a high-visibility position at the intersection of HR, finance, and compliance, where your expertise directly shapes how a growing company pays and retains its people.

You'll manage end-to-end payroll for 700+ employees across the United States, Canada, the UK, and India, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and a seamless employee experience at every pay cycle. You'll partner closely with HR and Finance to support labor cost planning, systems integrity, and audit readiness — and you'll have real ownership over how payroll evolves as we scale

Payroll Operations & Compliance

Lead end-to-end semi-monthly and monthly payroll processing for 350+ employees and contractors across multiple EINs in the U.S. and Canada (NAM).
Oversee payroll operations in India (APAC) for 400+ employees, partnering with regional teams to ensure consistency, compliance, and cross-border alignment.
Ensure full compliance with federal, state, and local tax laws; including timely tax filings, withholdings, and multi-state registrations.
Reconcile payroll liabilities (taxes, benefits, garnishments) in close partnership with HR and Finance.
Collaborate with HR and Finance to reconcile journal entries, ensuring accurate labor expense classification across entities.
Maintain timely updates to compensation, deductions, and benefits in partnership with HR.
Manage HSA contribution uploads, ensuring accurate and timely funding in coordination with benefits and banking partners.
Oversee UK pension import processes, ensuring compliance with auto-enrolment requirements and accurate submission to pension providers.
Champion data integrity and security across all payroll systems and employee records.
Serve as the escalation point for employee payroll inquiries; responsive, clear, and professional.

Labor Cost Allocation & Financial Reporting

Coordinate with Accounting to post labor costs from timesheet systems into the ERP and appropriate cost centers.
Work with Accounting to segment payroll across direct and indirect cost pools; project-based costs, fringe, overhead, and G&A.
Collaborate with FP&A and Project Accounting on labor forecasting and headcount budget planning.
Prepare payroll-related metrics, management reports, and audit-ready documentation.

Systems, Automation & Controls

Reconcile payroll outputs against ERP systems, banking platforms, and financial tools (e.g., Ramp, ADP).
Drive payroll system automation, improvements, and migration projects; ensuring data accuracy and continuity throughout.
Enforce payroll-related GL coding and segmentation policies across departments.
Maintain rigorous documentation and internal controls around payroll processes and approvals.

Audit & Compliance Leadership

Lead payroll components of internal and external audits; identify gaps and implement corrective actions.
Ensure accurate and timely filings for federal and state wage and tax reports (W-2, 941, etc.).
Coordinate with external accountants and tax advisors on payroll compliance and filing obligations.
Maintain state payroll registrations and ongoing reporting requirements across all applicable jurisdictions.

Required
