Senior Payroll Coordinator
Salary: $80,000 - $100,000

Join a great, growing organization! This role will be hybrid after training.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
• Gain exposure to high-impact, large-scale construction projects with complex payroll structures
• Clear path for professional growth with strong emphasis on career development and mentorship
• High visibility role with direct impact on payroll accuracy and compliance across the organization
• Collaborative, family-oriented culture with supportive leadership and open communication
• Opportunity to lead process improvements and influence payroll operations and systems
• Hybrid flexibility after onboarding (4 days in-office / 1 day remote)
• Work with advanced ERP systems and tools in a sophisticated payroll environment
• Comprehensive benefits package, including 401(k) match, wellness programs, and generous PTO


Key Responsibilities for the Senior Payroll Coordinator:
• Lead weekly in-house payroll processing, including final validation of payroll outputs and union allocations
• Maintain and audit employee payroll data, including pay rates, deductions, and terminations
• Manage retirement contributions and ensure accurate file transmissions to third-party providers
• Prepare and review payroll tax filings, including quarterly returns and W-2s
• Resolve complex payroll inquiries, including multi-state tax and garnishment calculations
• Support and mentor junior payroll staff while driving process improvements


Qualifications for the Senior Payroll Coordinator:
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field
• 5+ years of hands-on payroll experience (union + in-house payroll required; construction preferred)
• Strong experience with payroll tax filing and compliance
• Experience with ERP systems (e.g., CMiC, eCMS, Tableau or similar) and advanced Excel skills
