Manage full payroll processing activities in Workday from data review through final validation, ensuring employees are paid correctly and on schedule in accordance with applicable regulations.
Maintain payroll system setup by updating earning codes, deductions, tax settings, and workflow rules to reflect policy requirements and legal standards.
Conduct regular audits and reconciliations to identify discrepancies, investigate root causes, and correct payroll data issues in a timely manner.
Oversee payroll-related data interfaces, external file exchanges, and system updates to help ensure dependable information flow between platforms and vendors.
Prepare recurring and ad hoc reports, metrics, and payroll analysis to support planning, compliance, and business decision-making for internal stakeholders.
Assist with year-end payroll activities, system enhancements, and platform release testing by validating changes and confirming readiness for deployment.
Partner with HR, Finance, Benefits, IT, and third-party providers to address payroll questions, improve processes, and enhance system effectiveness.
Provide operational support during Workday implementation efforts and post-launch stabilization by helping resolve payroll-related issues and validating results.
Experience processing payroll in a multi-state environment with a strong understanding of payroll operations and compliance requirements.
Knowledge of payroll tax practices and reporting obligations at the federal, state, and local levels.
Hands-on experience with Workday payroll functionality, including payroll processing, configuration support, and reporting.
Background using enterprise HRIS or payroll systems such as PeopleSoft in addition to Workday.
Ability to perform biweekly payroll processing with a high degree of accuracy, organization, and confidentiality.
Strong analytical and reconciliation skills with the ability to investigate discrepancies and resolve payroll issues effectively.
Proficiency in collaborating across departments and communicating clearly with internal teams and external partners.
