Payroll Accountant

$83.2k - $93.6k

Creative Financial Staffing

Payroll Accountant

Looking for a role where you can take ownership of payroll while staying involved in key accounting functions? This South Bellevue opportunity offers a blend of payroll, benefits administration, and AP responsibilities within a collaborative team and a highly automated environment.

Payroll Accountant Salary: $83,200 $93,600 Location: South Bellevue, WA (On-Site)

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Own the payroll process for a multi-state workforce of 160 employees. Gain hands-on experience with union payroll, payroll taxes, and 401(k) administration. Work closely with HR and leadership through a structured payroll review process. Join a company with established systems and highly automated AP processes. Expand your accounting experience beyond payroll through AP and reconciliations. Utilize Acumatica and build expertise in a robust ERP environment. Enjoy a stable, visible role with direct impact across the organization.

Key Responsibilities for the Payroll Accountant:

  • Process weekly payroll for approximately 160 employees across three states, including union employees representing roughly 50% of the workforce. Administer payroll taxes, deductions, garnishments, and 401(k) contributions. Partner with HR and leadership to review and approve payroll before processing. Manage accounts payable activities, including processing approximately 1,000 invoices monthly. Reconcile and monitor approximately $150K in monthly corporate credit card transactions. Support payroll-related accounting entries, reconciliations, and compliance activities.

Qualifications for the Payroll Accountant:

  • Experience processing multi-state payroll. Union payroll experience. Accounts Payable experience. Experience with Acumatica ERP strongly preferred.
