Payroll Transformation Project Lead – ANZ 
12-Month Maximum-Term Contract | Australia & New Zealand

We’re looking for an experienced Payroll Transformation Project Lead to take a key role in a major payroll and workforce management transformation across Australia and New Zealand.
This is an opportunity to lead the end-to-end migration of an acquired business from its existing payroll and workforce management platforms onto our clients target-state solutions, working across both technology and the detailed payroll requirements that make a transformation successful.


Your responsibilities will include:
  • Leading the end-to-end payroll and workforce management system migration across ANZ.
  • Managing project delivery, milestones, risks, dependencies and key deliverables.
  • Working with implementation partners to drive configuration and solution design.
  • Leading payroll and workforce management data migration, testing, reconciliation, parallel runs and cutover.
  • Ensuring the new solutions accurately reflect Australian and New Zealand payroll requirements.
  • Working through complex Awards, Enterprise Agreements, leave, accruals, terminations and statutory requirements.
  • Supporting integration between payroll, time & attendance and finance systems.
  • Coordinating stakeholders across ANZ
  • Supporting the business through go-live and post-implementation stabilisation.
The systems
  • Payroll: ADP
  • Time & Attendance / Workforce Management:  Dormakaba
 We’re looking for someone who has personally led or played a senior delivery role in a payroll system implementation, transformation or migration.

You’ll ideally bring:
  • Proven experience delivering Australian and New Zealand payroll implementations or migrations.
  • Strong knowledge of Awards, Enterprise Agreements and payroll interpretation.
  • Deep understanding of ANZ payroll processes, including leave, accruals, terminations and statutory requirements.
  • Hands-on experience with data migration, testing, parallel payroll, reconciliation and cutover.
  • Experience integrating payroll with time & attendance/workforce management and finance.
  • Strong project and stakeholder management skills.
  • Experience working across complex, multi-country or multi-business environments.
  • The ability to operate at both the project leadership level and the detailed payroll/system level.
Why this role? This is more than a payroll implementation support role. You’ll be at the centre of a significant business transformation, helping shape how payroll and workforce management operate across ANZ and taking the business through to a successful go-live.

We’re ideally looking for someone who can start in the near term and has a track record of delivering complex, end-to-end payroll technology transformations.
