Payroll Specialist

$58.24k - $62.4k

Creative Financial Staffing

Join a mission-driven school community where your payroll expertise directly supports a team of dedicated educators. This is a stable, fully onsite opportunity with consistent hours, competitive pay, and modern payroll tools.


Payroll Specialist
Salary: $58,240 - $62,400


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Consistent Monday-Friday schedule (8am-4pm) for strong work-life balance
• 100% onsite role with free parking - no commuting hassles or added costs
• Join a respected academic institution in Bethesda with a collaborative culture
• Own the full payroll function and have real impact across 200-250 employees
• Stable, structured environment ideal for payroll professionals who value routine and accuracy
• Work with Paylocity, building experience with a leading payroll system
• Opportunity to be a key contributor within a tight-knit administrative team
• Clear scope of responsibilities - no ambiguity, just ownership and consistency
• Support a meaningful mission in education while advancing your payroll career


Key Responsibilities for the Payroll Specialist:
• Process full-cycle payroll for 200-250 employees
• Ensure accuracy and compliance with payroll regulations
• Maintain payroll records and resolve discrepancies
• Manage payroll reporting and system updates within Paylocity
• Ad hoc projects and reporting

Qualifications for the Payroll Specialist:
• 3+ years of full-cycle payroll experience
• Hands-on experience with Paylocity (required)
• Strong understanding of payroll processes and compliance
• Experience handling payroll for 200+ employees
