The Opportunity
What You'll Do
As our Senior Payroll Manager, reporting directly to the CFO, you will assume a materially more strategic mandate than a standard payroll execution role. From day one, you will take direct ownership of our US payroll operations, ensuring seamless and error-free processing within ADP Workforce Now. Simultaneously, you will oversee and review our India payroll cycles, currently managed by Paybooks, with an explicit mandate to evaluate and likely execute the insourcing of India payroll onto ADP’s India affiliate (Celergo) or a similar robust platform. This strategic transition will extend to other global entities as well, demanding both your hands-on execution prowess and the sound judgment required to design and implement an effective build and insourcing plan. You will navigate complex cross-border processes, coordinate effectively across the CFO, US Controller, EMEA/APAC Controller, India team including Finance staff, People/HR, and external processors. As the function matures and scales, you will also be poised to hire, train, and mentor a junior India payroll teammate, building out a high-performing team.
