Following our recent Workday implementation and global expansion to several new countries, with more to come, we are seeking a Head of Global Payroll to build, lead, and mature our global payroll function. This leader will own end-to-end payroll operations across all jurisdictions, ensure compliance and control at scale, and deliver a world-class employee experience as we expand internationally.

  • Build and maintain a global payroll control framework (standard processes, reconciliations, segregation of duties, approvals)
  • Ensure compliance with tax withholding, social contributions, and reporting across jurisdictions
  • Partner with Legal, Tax, and Finance on regulatory changes, and benefits/equity/bonus treatment. Lead audits, remediation, and continuous control monitoring
  • Launch payroll in new countries: select and manage local providers, establish banking/funding workflows, and implement statutory filings and benefits
  • Partner with People, Compensation, Stock Administration, Accounting, Finance, Legal, and IT on aligned data, policies, and processes
  • Support accounting close activities, journals, and reconciliations
  • Elevate employee experience with clear communications, self-service resources, and reliable service levels

Requirements:

  • 12+ years of progressive payroll leadership experience, including ownership of multi-country payroll operations in high-growth tech or similarly dynamic environments
