Hours: 5 days per week - 1 from home | 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM

About the Role

A well-established and growing construction business is looking for an experienced Payroll Specialist to join its finance team. The role will initially focus on payroll processing during a system implementation and automation phase. Over time, the payroll process will become more streamlined, making this a great opportunity to be part of an important transformation.

With a workforce of 100+ employees across NSW and QLD, under complex EBA agreements, attention to detail and a strong understanding of award interpretation are essential. Experience with construction awards or similarly complex EBAs will be highly valuable.

Key Responsibilities:

• Process weekly payroll, including manual calculations for redundancies, entitlements, and resignations.
• Ensure compliance with EBA conditions, overtime, RDOs, penalties, and allowances.
• Export payroll data from Deputy to MYOB and complete pay runs.
• Work within a changing payroll environment, as systems and processes are improved and automated.
• Maintain payroll records and reconciliations, ensuring accuracy in superannuation and payments.
• Communicate with site managers and employees to resolve payroll queries.
• Assist with end-of-financial-year payroll updates, including tax table and EBA increases.

What We’re Looking For:

• End-to-end payroll experience (100-150 employees preferred).
• Construction, union, or complex EBA payroll exposure (highly regarded).
• Strong Excel & Google Sheets skills (pivot tables a plus).
• High level of adaptability, patience, and resilience to navigate the system implementation phase.
• Excellent attention to detail and problem-solving ability.
• Ability to work autonomously, meet deadlines, and handle competing priorities.
• A resilient communicator who can provide professional payroll support to employees.

What We're Offering:

• Be part of an exciting payroll transformation—help shape new processes.
• Supportive, vibrant finance team in a collaborative open-plan office.
• Work-life balance with flexible start and finish times.
• Direct impact—not just a cog in the machine, but an opportunity to own your function.
• Social culture with monthly team events, office lunches, and end-of-year celebrations.
• Long-term stability in a growing business with opportunities for professional development.
