The Opportunity — Remote (USA / Canada)

We are looking for a Senior Payroll Operations Specialist I to serve as an advanced practitioner and escalation point on our Payroll Operations team. In this role, you'll own complex remittance operations, payroll corrections, and union compliance across a high-volume, multi-state environment — holding a high bar for accuracy, SLA performance, and documentation. Beyond executing at an exceptional level yourself, you'll mentor teammates, surface process improvements, and partner cross-functionally to resolve root-cause issues. It's a role for someone who takes pride in both the craft of payroll and the standard they set for those around them.

What You'll Do

• Own end-to-end payroll remittance operations including corrections, reversals, overpayments, and contribution remittances — resolving cases within SLA with clear documentation throughout

• Serve as an escalation point for complex union and agency issues; identify root causes of reporting discrepancies and coordinate resolution with appropriate payroll teams

• Mentor team members on complex remittance and compliance matters, actively raising the skill level of those around you

• Document and maintain SOPs, keeping them current, complete, and usable without additional coaching

• Identify gaps in payroll operations processes and bring forward concrete recommendations for improvement

• Partner cross-functionally on payment and client funding questions, system testing, and payroll-related project work

• Leverage AI tools to optimize operational workflows and adopt emerging functionalities that improve team efficiency and accuracy

• Proactively surface issues — with proposed solutions — and act as SME across teams to drive them to closure

What You'll Have

• 5+ years of end-to-end, multi-state payroll processing experience

• Advanced union expertise; ability to handle complex remittance and compliance issues independently

• Experience in third-party payroll or entertainment/film industry payroll strongly preferred

• Proficiency in Notion and Salesforce; intermediate Excel skills

• Demonstrated ability to document processes clearly and maintain SOPs that others can follow without hand-holding

• Strong communication and conflict resolution skills — comfortable working across teams and with external agencies

• Proactive approach to AI tooling; comfortable adopting and applying new workflows to improve operational efficiency

• FPC or CPP certification preferred
