Job Description:

We are seeking a hands-on Payroll Manager consultant to support both day-to-day payroll in Workday Payroll but also support with an UKG implementation. This is a high-priority, urgent need with strong potential to convert to permanent if the candidate performs well.

Job Responsibility:

  • Manage end-to-end bi-weekly and semi-monthly payroll processing using Workday Payroll and ADP Payroll for employees across multiple states and countries
  • Ensure accurate tax withholding, garnishments, and deductions in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations

  • Coordinate 401(k) contributions, employer matching, and compliance testing in collaboration with benefits teams
  • Maintain compliance with SOX controls, FLSA regulations, and payroll-related audits
  • Work closely with Finance and Accounting to ensure payroll journal entries, reconciliations, and month-end close processes are accurate
  • Prepare and analyze payroll-related accruals, reconciliations, and variance reports
  • Manage payroll-related general ledger (GL) postings and ensure accurate financial reporting
  • Support external and internal auditors with payroll-related documentation and reports

Requirements:

  • Strong end-to-end payroll processing experience
  • Deep experience in both Workday Payroll and UKG
  • Hands-on UKG implementation experience (not just “part of the team”)
  • Manager-level experience
  • Strong reporting skills (pulling reports, tying out data, testing payrolls)
  • Ability to validate setup (earnings, deductions, taxes, configurations)
  • Comfortable speaking directly with UKG implementation teams
  • Detail-oriented and able to tie out old system vs. new system data
  • 7+ years of payroll experience, with at least 3 years in a management role
  • Extensive experience with Workday Payroll and ADP Payroll in a large public company setting
  • Strong knowledge of multi-state payroll, tax compliance, payroll accounting, and stock compensation
  • Expertise in equity compensation, including RSUs, ESPP, and stock options
  • Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, data analysis, and reporting)
  • Familiarity with 401(k) plans, benefits deductions, and compliance requirements
  • Strong understanding of GAAP payroll accounting and general ledger processes
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills, with the ability to collaborate across departments

Nice to have:

  • Certified Payroll Professional (CPP) or other relevant certifications preferred
  • Experience in SOX compliance and payroll audits is a plus
What we offer:
  • medical, vision, dental, and life and disability insurance
  • eligible to enroll in our company 401(k) plan
