At Ecolab, we're seeking an experienced Payroll Specialist to join our payroll team on a 12-month fixed-term contract covering parental leave.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys payroll, knows New Zealand legislation and processes inside-out, and can confidently process payroll using Micropay. If you have those two things, we'd love to hear from you.

At Ecolab, we're seeking an experienced Payroll Specialist to join our payroll team on a 12-month fixed-term contract covering parental leave.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys payroll, knows New Zealand legislation and processes inside-out, and can confidently process payroll using Micropay. If you have those two things, we'd love to hear from you.

About the Role

Joining our supportive regional payroll team, you'll take ownership of payroll processing for our New Zealand employees, ensuring payroll is delivered accurately, compliantly and on time.

You'll support approximately 250 employees across New Zealand and Fiji, with a robust focus on New Zealand payroll operations.

An immediate start is preferred to allow for a full handover before the current incumbent commences parental leave.

What You'll Be Doing




End-to-end processing of New Zealand payroll
Managing employee payroll changes, new starters and terminations
Processing final pays and leave entitlements
Completing IRD Payday Filing requirements
Responding to employee payroll enquiries
Ensuring payroll compliance and accuracy
Supporting payroll reporting and general payroll administration

What We're Looking For

There are only two essential requirements for this role:
Proven experience processing end-to-end New Zealand payroll
Solid working knowledge of Micropay

That's it.

If you have experience with IRD requirements, KiwiSaver, terminations, leave calculations or payroll reporting, that's advantageous, but our focus is on finding someone who has successfully processed NZ payroll using Micropay.

Why Join Ecolab?
12-month fixed-term prospect with a global market leader
Hybrid working arrangements
Supportive and collaborative payroll team
Comprehensive handover provided
Opportunity to work for a purpose-driven organisation with a strong people-first culture
