- Support payroll reconciliation, parallel pay runs, testing, defect resolution, go-live and post-implementation activities.
- Provide clear documentation, training and knowledge transfer to client teams.
- Maintain accountability for assigned deliverables and contribute to meeting agreed project timelines, budgets and quality standards.
- Work collaboratively with clients, Dayforce and the broader Pinpoint project team to deliver successful outcomes.
