About the Role Snelling Staffing has partnered with a well-established local organization to find a reliable Payroll Administrator for their team. This is a long-term, permanent career move with a company that values stability, offers a competitive salary, and treats their team right.

You will be the go-to person for ensuring everyone gets paid accurately and on time across several different states. If you actually enjoy the "nitty-gritty" of payroll, find satisfaction in a perfectly balanced spreadsheet, and take pride in getting the numbers right every single time, you will fit right in.

Key Responsibilities Running Payroll: Handling the regular cycles to make sure wages, overtime, and bonuses are all spot on. Keeping Records Current: Updating the system for new hires, departures, and any pay changes or tax updates. Managing Deductions: Taking care of the details like benefits, garnishments, and taxes while staying on the right side of federal and state laws. Solving Problems: Reconciling reports and fixing any glitches before the submit button is hit. Supporting the Team: Working closely with HR and Finance to keep data clean, and helping out with year-end W-2s and audits.

Position Requirements We are looking for an experienced professional with a solid track record, not a resume stuffed with trendy filler keywords. Experience: 3 to 5 years of dedicated payroll or accounting experience. Know-How: A strong understanding of payroll taxes, wage laws, and how deductions work across different states. Software & Tech: Comfort using systems like ADP, Paychex, or UKG, alongside intermediate to advanced Excel skills. Reliability: Highly organized, detail-obsessed, and capable of handling sensitive, confidential information with total discretion.

Work Environment This position is based in-office, though there is flexibility for occasional remote work once you are fully trained and up to speed. Because payroll is time-sensitive, we just ask for a reasonable amount of flexibility during heavy processing weeks or at the end of the year.

Next Steps to Apply Do not let your application get lost in a corporate black hole. Connect with a local team that values your hard work and gives it to you straight.

Please note that only fully completed applications will be considered. Any incomplete applications will not be processed or considered for this position. Ensure all work history and contact details are fully filled out before submitting.
