Permanent full time role for a Senior Payroll Officer in Wellington CBD

Your new company
This leading public sector organisation is committed to providing a people-focused service that works towards making Aotearoa a better place for everyone. They are currently experiencing growth in their Wellington CBD division and are on the lookout for passionate individuals who can uphold their values of integrity and dedication to their service.

Your new role
Sitting within the Payroll and HRIS team, you will be one of three Senior Payroll Officers who ensure that timely and accurate payroll services are provided to employees of the organisation and its subsidiaries. This process is done using SAP. As a Senior Payroll Officer, you will act as the escalation point for the wider payroll team, providing support to more junior officers where necessary.

What you'll need to succeed
You will be an experienced payroll officer who is focused on improvement. Experience with SAP is essential. It would be a particular advantage if you have been using this system recently, but previous SAP exposure and a general proficiency with finance systems is sufficient. You will be an open-minded individual, comfortable in a senior position, and who can take their own initiative. Public sector experience is preferable.

What you'll get in return
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced payroll officer as it offers a competitive salary, which is flexible based on experience. You will be in a supportive team environment in an organisation that offers career progression and opportunities for development.
