About The Role

We are seeking a hands-on Payroll Manager to own payroll operations across multiple global entities. This role will oversee the end-to-end payroll process, manage relationships with payroll vendors, ensure compliance across jurisdictions, and provide reporting and insights to the finance team. The Payroll Manager will play a key role in transitioning from our current payroll platform (Deel) to a new solution (likely ADP) and will partner with HR and Finance on employee reimbursements, contractor management, headcount reporting, and special projects.

The ideal candidate has deep experience with multi-entity, global payroll, thrives in a dynamic environment, and is comfortable working across systems, teams, and time zones.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage and oversee payroll processes across multiple global entities, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with local laws and regulations.
• Validate payroll runs prepared by payroll vendors / systems (currently Deel), for both employees and contractors, ensuring correct treatment of payments and compliance with contractor requirements.
• Administer and track employee reimbursements and other payroll-related adjustments.
• Lead the transition from Deel to ADP (or other future payroll platform), including requirements gathering, data migration, testing, and go-live.
• Create payroll trend reports for accounting and finance (e.g., total payroll costs, headcount trends, overtime analysis).
