Industry-leading pay on offer for the right, appropriately skilled candidate. Immediate start.

Engagement: Casual employee or contractor - 2 days per week (on-site), Monday and Tuesday.

Location: On-site, Parramatta NSW - attendance in the office is required on both working days.

Start: Immediate.

Rate: Casual employee: $45 to $50 per hour.

Contractor: $50 per hour.

We are a disability services provider operating in the NDIS space, running payroll for up to 200 part-time, time-and-attendance staff. We are seeking an experienced payroll officer with NDIS experience to own the pay cycle end-to-end across a two-day working week, someone who knows award interpretation and can be trusted to get complex, penalty-heavy pays right the first time. This is a hands-on processing role, not an advisory one, and we pay accordingly for genuine expertise.

What you'll do

- Run end-to-end payroll for up to 200 part time, time-and-attendance employees in Pay cat, from timesheet import through to payment and payslips.
- Interpret and correctly apply the relevant modern awards, principally the SCHADS Award (Social, Community, Home Care and Disability Services). This includes shift and weekend penalties, overtime, broken-shift allowances, sleepovers, on-call/recall, travel and kilometre allowances, and minimum-engagement rules.
- Utilise AI tools and overseas support to improve efficiency and processes.
- Reconcile time-and-attendance data against rosters and resolve exceptions, anomalies and missing punches before each run.
- Calculate and process superannuation guarantee correctly on ordinary time earnings, ensure contributions reach the funds on time via the clearing house, and keep contributions reconciled to payroll each quarter.
- Manage PAYG withholding, leave accruals (personal, annual and long service), terminations and back-pays.
- Lodge Single Touch Payroll (STP) reporting each pay run and complete STP finalisation.




- Maintain payroll accuracy and compliance with Fair Work, the NES, the ATO and the superannuation guarantee regime, with clean, auditable records.
- Apply award and pay-rate changes (annual wage reviews, SCHADS increases) accurately and on time.
- Support period-end and year-end payroll processes and respond to employee pay queries.

What you'll bring

- Proven payroll processing experience for a comparable or larger part-time, shift-based workforce.
- Demonstrated experience working within the NDIS or disability services sector.
- Deep, demonstrable award-interpretation expertise, ideally SCHADS / NDIS-sector awards - this is a core requirement, not a nice-to-have.
- Strong command of time-and-attendance payroll: penalties, allowances, overtime and broken shifts.
- Hands-on Pay cat experience (strongly preferred), or fast proficiency in a comparable time-and-attendance-integrated payroll platform.
- Sound working knowledge of superannuation guarantee obligations, STP, PAYG and Fair Work / NES compliance.
- Accuracy, discretion with confidential data, and the ability to work autonomously and hit pay-run deadlines without supervision.
- Reliable on-site availability in Parramatta two days per week, Monday and Tuesday.

Nice to have

- Experience with aged care, community or home-care providers more broadly.
- Exposure to SCHADS enterprise agreements layered over the award.

Why this role

- Industry-leading remuneration for a candidate who can genuinely demonstrate the NDIS, award and superannuation expertise above.
- Immediate start, with a clear, self-contained brief and the autonomy to own it.
- A part-time commitment that fits alongside other work - two focused days a week (Monday and Tuesday) in a central Parramatta office, only 6mins walk to the station!
- Flexible engagement - available as a casual employee or as a contractor.

We are looking for someone to start immediately in this role. If you have any feedback or queries, please do not hesitate to reach out to Emma at [email protected] or call/ text [0416 501 990](tel:0416 501 990)
