Description
This is a hands-on payroll role for someone who knows their way around end-to-end payroll processing and is ready to take on more. You will own the accurate and compliant delivery of payroll outcomes, handle intermediate-level queries independently, and contribute to the team's overall service standards. This is not an entry-level position—you will be expected to bring solid payroll knowledge, hands-on SAP Payroll processing experience, work with a degree of autonomy, and support the development of those around you. Experience processing South African payroll and/or international payroll is advantageous, but not essential. What You Will Be Doing Processing end-to-end payroll accurately and on time using established systems and tools, including SAP Payroll. Maintaining employee masterfile data in line with employment legislation and internal requirements. Preparing recurring and ad hoc payroll reports and supporting payment requirements for internal stakeholders. Handling intermediate-complexity payroll queries and resolving them with minimal escalation. Supporting teammates and providing downstream mentoring to less experienced team members. Upholding service standards when responding to employee payroll queries. Identifying opportunities to improve payroll processes and contributing to operational excellence. What You Bring Proven experience in end-to-end payroll processing. Hands-on experience using SAP Payroll (required). Solid understanding of payroll legislation and compliance requirements. Strong Excel skills and proficiency in payroll systems. High attention to detail and a track record of accuracy under deadline pressure. Confidence handling complex queries and escalating only when necessary. A collaborative mindset with the ability to guide and support junior team members. Strong communication skills and a proactive, solutions-oriented approach. Experience processing South African payroll is advantageous but not essential. International payroll experience is a plus but not required.
