Real Chemistry is seeking a Director of Payroll to lead end-to-end payroll operations for our U.S. employee population of approximately 1,700 employees across multiple entities. This role is responsible for ensuring accurate, compliant, and timely payroll execution across salaried, hourly, and temporary workforces. The Director will serve as a key partner to HR and Finance, oversee a small team, and drive continuous improvement in payroll processes, controls, and systems to support a growing, multi-entity organization.

Key Responsibilities

Lead full-cycle U.S. payroll operations across multiple entities, including bi-monthly (salaried) and bi-weekly (hourly/temporary) payroll cycles
Ensure accurate and timely processing for ~1,700 employees, including both permanent and contingent workforce populations
Manage and develop a team of Payroll Analysts, providing coaching, performance management, and operational oversight
Oversee payroll-related components including taxes, benefits, and 401(k), ensuring compliance across federal, state, and local jurisdictions
Serve as a primary partner to HR and Finance on employee lifecycle events, reporting, reconciliations, and issue resolution
Ensure compliance with all payroll regulations, including tax filings, audits, and resolution of agency notices
Drive process optimization, documentation, and strengthening of internal controls to support audit readiness and scalability
Support payroll-related system initiatives, including integrations and data flow optimization between payroll and HRIS platforms (e.g., ADP, Workday)

Qualifications

8–10+ years of progressive payroll experience, including team leadership
Deep expertise in multi-state U.S. payroll operations and regulatory compliance
Hands-on experience with ADP (Workforce Now or similar platform) required
Experience with Workday or other HRIS systems strongly preferred
Demonstrated ability to manage sensitive data with a high level of accuracy, integrity, and confidentiality
Strong cross-functional partnership skills with HR, Finance, and external providers
Experience driving system implementations, integrations, and process improvements

Preferred Profile

Strategic, hands-on leader who can balance operational execution with process transformation
Detail-oriented with strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, multi-entity, and largely remote environment
Proven ability to build scalable processes and enhance controls in a growing organization

Success in This Role Looks Like

Payroll is consistently accurate, on time, and audit-ready
Strong partnership with HR and Finance enabling seamless employee lifecycle processing
Reduced manual processes through automation and system optimization
Scalable payroll infrastructure that supports organizational growth

Working with Real HART: Since the pandemic, we have adapted to how our people told us they want to work. We have office locations in cities in the US, UK, and Europe with many employees and clients that serve as hubs where and when they need us. For employees who are within an hour of one of our offices, we expect attendance in the office two days per week, either at a Real Chemistry office or onsite with clients. We are also actively opening new office locations, so if one opens near you, our Real HART policy will apply. We are not looking for attendance for the sake of attendance but believe that the opportunity to coordinate in-office team meetings, 1:1 meetings with managers, taking advantage of on-site learning, and connecting with client partners is a critical to delivering on our purpose of making healthcare what it should be. Outside of these offices, we have regions, where people work remotely but come together quarterly for collaboration, culture and learning opportunities. We call this our Real Hybrid and Regional Teams (Real HART) approach. Real Chemistry believes we are best together – and our workplace strategy fosters connection and collaboration in person – but also supports flexibility for our people.

Real Chemistry is an Equal Opportunity employer. We continually strive to build and sustain an inclusive and equitable work environment where our employees feel empowered to leverage all they bring from their personal lived experience and professional expertise, to make our team the best in the industry. We encourage motivated and qualified applicants to apply without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, ethnic or national origin, age, physical or mental disability, genetic information, marital information, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state, or local employment discrimination laws where Real Chemistry operates. Should you require accommodations throughout the interview process please let your recruiter know.

Notice: Real Chemistry and its affiliates' names are being misused by scammers through messaging services, fake websites, and apps. Do not share personal or financial information or make payments to any unverified sources claiming to be connected to Real Chemistry. We are working to stop these unauthorized activities and protect our community.
