- Track and reconcile vacation, sick time, and leave balances
- Support leaves of absence, including disability claims and return-to-work coordination with carriers




- Answer employee payroll and benefits questions with care and discretion
- Prepare payroll reports and journal entries and reconcile payroll accounts with Finance
- Identify opportunities to tidy up processes and improve accuracy

What You Bring

- 3 years of full-cycle Canadian payroll experience, ideally including benefits administration

- Clear, approachable communication style and sound judgement with confidential information
- Experience with unionized or multi-province payroll is an asset

What’s on Offer

- Opportunities for professional development, including support toward payroll designations
- A role where your work has a direct, visible impact on employees across the business
- The chance to live and work in the Fraser Valley without the Vancouver commute
