Reporting to the Controller, this consultant will lead payroll processing, compliance, and payroll systems administration for an employee population of 100–300.

• Act as the primary owner and administrator of ADP Workforce Now and ADP Workforce Manager, maintaining system functionality and supporting payroll operations.

• Review payroll activity in detail, including earnings, accrual balances, tax withholdings, benefit deductions, and garnishments to confirm accuracy and compliance.

• Work with internal stakeholders and external partners to address payroll system setup issues, improve configurations, and resolve items related to accruals and benefits interfaces.

• Assist with payroll tax filings, year-end payroll activities, balance sheet reconciliations, and audit support as needed.

• Partner closely with Human Resources, Benefits, and Accounting teams to preserve data accuracy and streamline payroll-related workflows.

• Investigate discrepancies, identify root causes, and implement corrective actions to improve payroll reliability and process efficiency.

• At least 5 years of payroll experience, including prior lead or management-level responsibility.

• Strong hands-on experience with ADP Workforce Now and ADP Workforce Manager, including payroll administration and system oversight.

• Solid understanding of California payroll tax requirements, wage and hour compliance, garnishment processing, and accrual tracking.

• Previous experience supporting payroll in a union environment is preferred.

• Demonstrated ability to perform payroll audits, reconciliations, and issue resolution with a high degree of accuracy.

• Advanced Excel skills and exceptional attention to detail.

• Strong communication and collaboration skills for working effectively across payroll, HR, benefits, and accounting functions.
