Job Description

Own payroll. Make it better. Be the person everyone trusts to get it right.

Andrew’s is a growing, multi-division company working in refrigeration, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, concrete, and construction across Arizona. About 270 people count on us to pay them accurately and on time, and we’re looking for a Payroll Administrator to own that.

This isn’t a “just push the button” role. You’ll run payroll end to end, handle taxes at year-end, keep our certified payroll airtight, and have real room to improve how things get done. If you like being the go-to expert and enjoy the puzzle of construction payroll, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Own

Payroll, start to finish

  • Run weekly payroll across multiple entities and divisions.
  • Handle off-cycles, final pay, bonuses, retro pay, and reimbursements.
  • Calculate overtime and prevailing wage/fringe correctly, every time.

Davis-Bacon & certified payroll

  • Prepare, maintain, and submit Davis-Bacon certified payroll reports for public and prevailing wage projects.
  • Apply wage determinations, worker classifications, and fringe requirements accurately so we stay compliant with every contract and agency.

Taxes & year-end

  • Familiar with payroll tax filings and deposits (941s, state withholding, unemployment).
  • Assist with annual audits, including preparing payroll documentation, reports, and reconciliations for auditors.

Systems & reporting

  • Serve as our Paylocity owner, maintaining earning and deduction codes, benefit deductions, and tax setups.
  • Maintain Excel reports and identify tools that make payroll faster, cleaner, and easier to understand.

People & partnership

  • Be the go-to resource for payroll questions from employees, managers, and leadership.
  • Work closely with HR, accounting, and division managers.

What You Bring

  • 3 - 5+ years of payroll experience (ideally in construction or the trades), including running the full cycle independently.
  • Hands-on experience maintaining and reporting Davis-Bacon certified payroll.
  • Solid working knowledge of payroll taxes, year-end/W-2s, and FLSA compliance.
  • Strong Excel skills: XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, pivot tables, formulas, and reconciliations.
  • Experience with Paylocity or a similar payroll system.
  • Sharp attention to detail, good judgment, and discretion with confidential info.
  • Bonus points for CPP or FPC certification.

Why You’ll Like It Here

  • Real ownership: this is your function to run and shape.
  • Room to improve things: we welcome better processes, smarter spreadsheets, and cleaner systems.
  • Visible impact: every employee across our job sites feels the difference when payroll is done right.
  • A team that values you: you’ll work directly with HR, accounting, and leadership, not in a silo.

Reports To: Assistant Controller
Pay: $70,000 -  $75,000 per year, depending on experience
Benefits: medical, dental, vision, life insurance, HSA, 401(k) with 4% match, Paid time off and holidays
