Payroll Specialist

Pay: $25.00–$28.00/hour
Location: Lockhart, FL | Fully Onsite

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This Payroll Specialist role offers the opportunity to join a well‑established Orlando‑based construction company with more than 40 years of industry success. The organization is known for stability, long employee tenure, and a family‑oriented culture that values teamwork, accountability, and autonomy.

As a Payroll Specialist, you’ll take ownership of a high‑volume, full‑cycle payroll process supporting approximately 500 employees in a structured, weekly payroll environment. This role offers strong exposure to job costing, labor tracking, and construction‑specific payroll compliance, giving the Payroll Specialist a highly marketable skill set.

This opportunity is ideal for a Payroll Specialist who thrives in routine‑driven workflows, enjoys detailed reconciliation work, and values a stable, team‑oriented environment with long‑term career potential.

Qualifications for the Payroll Specialist

• 5+ years of full‑cycle payroll experience in a high‑volume environment
• Construction payroll experience strongly preferred, including exposure to job costing, certified payroll, or Davis‑Bacon requirements
