Payroll Coordinator

Elite Placement Group, LLC
Stamford, CT Full Time
POSTED ON 4/23/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/22/2026

Payroll Coordinator


A well-established organization is seeking a detail-driven Payroll Coordinator to support high-volume, multi-state payroll operations across the U.S. and Canada. This role sits within a fast-paced corporate environment and plays a key part in ensuring payroll accuracy, compliance, and smooth processing for a large employee population.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is not your “just process numbers and move on” payroll role. You’ll be a core part of a high-volume payroll operation and get hands-on exposure to a major Workday implementation—meaning your input actually shapes how payroll runs going forward.


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Partner with Payroll leadership to process weekly payroll for 2,500 employees across the U.S. and Canada
  • Review wages, overtime, bonuses, and deductions to ensure complete accuracy before payroll runs
  • Maintain clean, organized payroll records and documentation
  • Support employees with payroll questions and resolve discrepancies quickly and professionally
  • Track timesheets, submissions, and paid time reporting cycles
  • Help guide employees on payroll policies and procedures
  • Play a key role in a Workday implementation and transition process


What They’re Looking For

  • 4–5 years of multi-state payroll experience
  • Strong understanding of federal, state, and local payroll regulations
  • Experience with Workday preferred (ADP or similar systems also valued)
  • Advanced Excel skills (think formulas, pivots, VLOOKUPs—not just basic spreadsheets)
  • High attention to detail with strong organizational instincts
  • Ability to juggle multiple priorities without letting accuracy slip
  • Strong communication skills and comfort handling sensitive data
  • Problem-solving mindset when payroll issues inevitably pop up


If you like payroll work where precision matters, deadlines are real, and your Excel skills actually get tested—this is your lane.


Apply if you’re ready to own payroll accuracy at scale.
