Creative Financial Staffing has partnered with a respected nonprofit healthcare provider to hire a Payroll Specialist to join their tight‑knit accounting and finance team, based out of Lynn, MA. The Payroll Specialist will work directly with the CFO and gain exceptional visibility across the organization.

Why This Payroll Specialist Role Stands Out

  • Highly respected nonprofit with 50 years of community impact
  • Nationally recognized model for urban healthcare
  • Small, collaborative accounting team with direct access to leadership
  • Strong sense of mission and employee‑focused culture
  • Great opportunity for a Payroll Specialist looking for ownership and growth
  • Hybrid work environment

  • Process biweekly payroll for 500 Massachusetts employees
  • Review and validate employee time sheets, ensuring accuracy before upload
  • Coordinate with department managers to resolve payroll discrepancies
  • Assist with payroll‑related reporting during month‑end close

Background Expected of the Payroll Specialist

  • Associate degree in Accounting or equivalent experience (2 years)
  • 3 years of payroll processing experience
  • Experience with UKG or similar system is a major plus
  • Strong attention to detail and comfort working in a fast‑paced nonprofit environment
