- Administer payroll for unionized employees in accordance with applicable collective agreements, including overtime rules, shift premiums, and distribution/equalization requirements.
- Oversee overtime authorization and tracking processes,
working with operations leaders to ensure hours are accurately recorded and approved.
- Process employee reimbursement, ensuring they are accurately recorded and approved.
- Process and manage vacation accrual, statutory holiday pay, and leave-related pay adjustments in line with company policy and applicable legislation.
- Process and reconcile government remittances in compliance with federal and provincial regulatory requirements; coordinate with Accounts Payable to facilitate payment processing.
- Administer group health benefits enrollment, changes, and terminations for eligible employees.
- Administer the company Retirement Savings Plan (RSP), including enrollment, contributions, and employee inquiries.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for benefits providers and brokers and support annual renewal and plan design discussions.
- Reconcile union dues and prepare remittance submissions
Compliance & Controls
- Maintain compliance with employment standards, tax remittance, and reporting obligations across all jurisdictions of operation.
- Maintain accurate, audit-ready payroll records and personnel file standards in coordination with HR.
- Partner with Finance on payroll-related journal entries, accruals, and month-end close activities.
- Support internal and external audits with timely, accurate payroll and benefits documentation.
- Manage workers’ compensation administration, including claims coordination, premium remittances, and compliance with provincial and state workers’ compensation board requirements.
Process Improvement & Systems
- Act as a key hands-on contributor to the HRIS/payroll system implementation, including vendor configuration, data migration, testing, and go-live support.
- Serve as the internal payroll subject-matter expert during system selection and implementation, translating payroll/compliance requirements into system configuration decisions.
- Build standardized, documented payroll and benefits processes to replace ad hoc or manual workflows.
- Identify and implement process improvements to reduce manual effort and error rates as the organization scales.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of progressive payroll experience, including multi-provincial payroll.
- International full-cycle payroll knowledge is highly valued; experience with US and Canadian payroll requirements is a strong asset given our multi-country/entity operations.
- Experience administering payroll in a unionized environment, including collective agreement interpretation, is required.
- Payroll Compliance Professional (PCP) or Certified Payroll Manager (CPM) designation preferred.
- Solid working knowledge of HRIS and payroll systems is essential; comfort configuring, troubleshooting, and optimizing these systems is a core requirement of this role, not a peripheral skill.
- Direct experience as part of an HRIS/ERP or payroll system implementation team (selection, configuration, data migration, testing, or go-live) is a significant asset.
