What are the responsibilities and job description for the Payroll Specialist position at Spot On Talent?
If you like the puzzle of hourly manufacturing payroll, with its overtime, timecard validation and the occasional state tax notice, this one’s for you.

- Review new hires, terminations, adjustments, bonuses and garnishments

- Support quarterly filings, year-end and W-2 validation
- Run reconciliations and audits, and fix the root cause of variances
What we’re looking for
- 5 years of end-to-end payroll experience, including high-volume hourly payroll
- Workday Payroll experience (required)
- Experience resolving payroll tax notices with state agencies
- Year-end and W-2 experience
- Strong Excel and auditing skills
Nice to have: manufacturing or multi-location payroll, payrolls of 1,000 employees, SOX or internal audit experience
The details
