We are looking for a Payroll Administrator to join a service-based organization on a Contract basis in Kitchener, Ontario. This role is ideal for someone who can manage payroll with accuracy and confidence across multiple entities and provincial jurisdictions while working with minimal supervision. You will support a workforce of approximately 380 employees using Dayforce and help ensure employees are paid correctly and on time through weekly and bi-weekly cycles.

Responsibilities:
• Administer end-to-end payroll processing for roughly 380 employees across three related companies using Dayforce.
• Coordinate payroll for different pay schedules, including one weekly payroll and two bi-weekly payroll cycles, while maintaining accuracy and meeting deadlines.
• Handle payroll activities across multiple Canadian provinces, ensuring compliance with applicable provincial requirements and remittance practices.
• Review timesheets, calculate overtime, and process pay for a workforce made up of both salaried and hourly employees.
• Process employee expense reimbursements in accordance with company policies and payroll procedures.
• Manage employee offboarding and leave administration, including final payments, Records of Employment, and payroll updates related to leaves of absence.
• Provide payroll support for a workforce that includes a unionized employee population, applying collective agreement considerations where required.
• Work independently to keep payroll operations running smoothly during an interim coverage period and support continuity through upcoming pay cycle processing.
• At least 3 years of payroll experience in an environment supporting 101 to 500 employees.
• Hands-on experience using Dayforce for full-cycle payroll administration.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently and manage deadlines with minimal oversight.
• Experience processing payroll for employees located in more than one Canadian province.
• Solid understanding of timesheet review, overtime calculations, and employee expense reimbursement processing.
• Familiarity with terminations, Records of Employment, and leave of absence payroll administration.
• Previous exposure to union payroll matters would be considered an asset.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to payroll accuracy and confidentiality.
