AI Summary
The Payroll Administrator is responsible for accurate and timely bi-weekly payroll processing for assigned territories while serving as a primary partner to field and operations leaders. This role involves auditing timecards, resolving payroll discrepancies, ensuring compliance with wage and hour laws, and coaching leaders on payroll best practices.
At Spartan Fitness Holdings, people are at the heart of everything we do. As one of the largest Club Pilates franchise organizations in the country, we support more than 170 studios across multiple states. Our Payroll team is evolving beyond payroll processing into a true business partnership model, supporting field leaders with payroll expertise, coaching, and compliance guidance.
Spartan Fitness Holdings is seeking a Payroll Administrator who thrives in a fast-paced, complex payroll environment. The ideal candidate will have 1–3+ years of experience supporting a franchise, multi-unit, or similarly decentralized organization, with exposure to multi-state payroll, high-volume hourly workforces, complex timekeeping, commissions, and other variable compensation. Experience partnering directly with field and operations leaders is highly valued, and prior experience within the fitness or wellness franchise industry—along with familiarity with Paycor, Paywell, and/or ClubReady—is strongly preferred. We are looking for more than a payroll processor; we want a proactive problem solver, relationship builder, and trusted payroll partner who understands that accurate and timely payroll is an essential part of taking care of our people.
