Support a large-scale workforce onboarding program
NSW Government | start ASAP | based in Ultimo
$50 – 70 per hour + super (depending on experience)

This isn’t your typical government role. Joining a respected public sector organisation undergoing significant transformation, you will play a key role in maintaining payroll accuracy while supporting the onboarding of a large number of current employees.

Working closely with the Payroll and HR teams, you will be responsible for the accurate and timely delivery of fortnightly payroll, ensuring payroll data is validated, reconciled and submitted correctly through a shared services model. This is an immediate-start contract prospect running through to Christmas, offering the chance to contribute to a critical workforce initiative.

Reporting to the Head of Human Resources, your responsibilities will include:
Manage the end-to-end preparation and coordination of the fortnightly payroll.
Review and validate employee data, timesheets, leave balances, allowances, deductions and salary changes.
Deliver payroll reconciliations and resolve discrepancies before and after payroll processing.
Act as the key liaison with shared services providers, managing payroll enquiries and escalations.




Maintain payroll controls, compliance documentation and audit requirements.
Support payroll data integrity and ensure employee records are accurately maintained.

To be successful, you will bring demonstrated end-to-end payroll experience, ideally within a government or public sector workplace. You will have strong payroll reconciliation skills, hands-on experience with SAP Payroll, and exposure to HRIS platforms and payroll system integrations. Experience with Workday will be highly regarded. Most importantly, you will possess exceptional attention to detail, with the ability to identify discrepancies, maintain high levels of data accuracy and ensure payroll is processed correctly every cycle. Strong problem-solving skills, sound judgement and the ability to build effective working relationships with stakeholders across HR, finance and shared services will set you apart. APPLY NOW. Applications are being reviewed as they are received, so suitable candidates are encouraged to apply promptly.
