An opportunity has arisen to join an established global business servicing the mining and resources sector as Payroll Supervisor within its shared services function.

Based at Perth International Airport, you will oversee payroll across five Australian entities, with weekly, fortnightly and monthly pay cycles. You will guide three onshore Payroll Officers and provide technical support to two offshore Payroll Officers.

Initially reporting to the Mobility, Compensation and Benefits Lead, the immediate priority is supporting the Micropay payroll and offshore team. The broader function operates across ADP Payforce, ADP Payline, HR3 and Micropay, with a longer-term intention to consolidate onto ADP Payforce.

The role combines ownership of day-to-day payroll with remediation, process improvements and systems integration. There is scope for the position to develop into broader management of the Australian payroll function as the transition progresses.

Day-to-day duties will include:

- Overseeing accurate and timely payroll delivery across multiple entities and pay cycles
- Supervising, training and supporting the onshore payroll team
- Providing technical guidance to offshore colleagues on complex payroll and compliance matters
- Interpreting awards, enterprise agreements and employment conditions
- Overseeing superannuation, PAYG and payroll tax obligations
- Managing month-end and financial year-end payroll reporting and reconciliations
- Reviewing complex calculations, including terminations, back payments and leave accruals
- Overseeing third-party payroll payments and maintaining employee data integrity
- Resolving payroll queries and working with HR, Finance and other stakeholders
- Supporting audits,



historical reconciliations and remediation activities
- Improving payroll processes, documentation and controls
- Contributing to payroll systems integration and consolidation
- Providing hands-on processing support during leave periods and peak workloads

About You

- Strong end-to-end Australian payroll experience, including compliance and reconciliations
- Experience interpreting awards and enterprise agreements across complex workforces
- Previous responsibility for guiding payroll staff, reviewing work or resolving technical escalations
- Ability to investigate issues independently and recommend practical solutions

- Willingness to remain hands-on while taking responsibility for broader payroll delivery
- Clear communication and the ability to support colleagues across different locations
- Mining, construction, civil or related industry experience preferred
- Experience with Micropay or ADP Payforce would be valuable

You may be an established Payroll Supervisor or Manager, or a solid Senior Payroll Specialist ready to step into broader leadership. Technical capability, initiative and the ability to guide others through complex matters will be central to your success. You will suit an environment where you can take ownership, work independently and help improve how payroll operates, with support from an experienced leader.
