As a global company with employees across the US, UK, and Ireland, we're seeking a Payroll Manager to elevate our payroll operations.

What you can do for Expel

• Ensure we pay our people accurately and timely regardless of where the work is performed

• Continuously review and update our Workday system integrations to ensure optimal performance
• Provide operational support by leading and facilitating training, and crafting end user documentation
• Design and build new reports
• Add more humor to the day to day (we try not to take ourselves too seriously)

What you should bring with you

• 6+ years of progressive payroll experience. 
• 2+ years working with Workday; specifically payroll, absence, benefits, and integrations. Bonus points if you have experience working with OSV Atmosphere, OSV Support, and/or OSV money movement services.

• Artistry to translate and shift communication styles between internal partners, including at the executive level, and external development resources to ensure clarity and consensus
• Prowess to consistently manage timelines, communicate delays, and clarify ambiguous requirements (in other words, you set & meet expectations like a pro)
• A college degree or a compelling story
