Payroll Director

AlediumHR

Job Description

Job Description

AlediumHR has partnered with a nationally recognized healthcare organization to recruit an experienced Payroll Director. This is a high-impact leadership opportunity responsible for overseeing enterprise payroll operations supporting approximately 55,000 employees across multiple states.

Reporting to the Assistant Vice President of Payroll, you will lead a team of payroll professionals while serving as the organization's payroll expert for Oracle Payroll. You'll work closely with HR, Finance, and IT to optimize payroll operations, improve processes, and ensure accurate, compliant payroll delivery across a complex healthcare enterprise.

If you enjoy combining operational leadership with technology, continuous improvement, and strategic influence, this is an outstanding opportunity to make a lasting impact.

As Director of Payroll, you will:

  • Provide strategic leadership for enterprise payroll operations supporting approximately 55,000 employees nationwide.
  • Lead and develop a payroll organization consisting of two Payroll Managers and approximately 40 indirect team members.
  • Serve as the functional business owner for Oracle Payroll, partnering with HR, Finance, HRIS, and IT.
  • Lead Oracle Payroll post-go-live activities including quarterly release testing, payroll validation, troubleshooting, enhancement requests, and ongoing system optimization.
  • Drive payroll process improvements, automation initiatives, and operational efficiencies.
  • Ensure payroll accuracy, compliance, and timely processing across multiple states and payroll cycles.
  • Support the continued expansion of in-house payroll operations while helping shape future payroll strategy.

What Makes You Successful

We're looking for an experienced payroll executive who combines operational excellence with deep expertise in Oracle Payroll.

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years of progressive payroll leadership experience within a large, complex organization.
  • Hands-on experience with Oracle Fusion Payroll or Oracle Payroll Cloud.
  • Proven experience supporting Oracle Payroll after implementation, including:
  • Quarterly release testing
  • Payroll validation
  • Troubleshooting
  • Enhancement requests
  • Ongoing system optimization
  • Experience serving as the Payroll business lead or subject matter expert working closely with HRIS and IT.
  • Multi-state payroll leadership experience in an enterprise environment.
  • Demonstrated success leading payroll operations and developing high-performing teams.

Preferred Experience

  • Healthcare industry experience.
  • Oracle Payroll implementation experience.
  • Shared Services environment.
  • Payroll process automation and continuous improvement.
  • Payroll accounting and general ledger reconciliation.

Why You'll Want This Opportunity

  • Lead payroll operations for a nationally recognized healthcare organization.
  • Influence payroll strategy while partnering with executive leadership.
  • Work in a highly collaborative environment focused on innovation and continuous improvement.
  • Competitive salary 
  • Comprehensive benefits package.
  • Hybrid work environment based in Brentwood, Tennessee.
  • Relocation assistance available for qualified candidates.

Please Note

This search focuses on payroll operations leaders with hands-on experience with Oracle Payroll.

Candidates whose Oracle background is limited to Oracle ERP, Oracle Financials, or Oracle HCM, without ownership of Payroll, consulting, or implementation-only experience, are unlikely to be considered.

The ideal candidate has successfully led payroll operations after an Oracle Payroll implementation and has remained actively involved in quarterly testing, payroll validation, troubleshooting, enhancements, and continuous system optimization.

If you're ready to lead payroll for one of the nation's largest healthcare organizations while helping shape the future of payroll operations, we'd love to speak with you confidentially.

Apply today for immediate consideration.
