About BDO
At BDO Australia, our why is ‘empowering people, realising possibilities’. One way we bring this to life is by hiring and developing exceptional talent, to deliver on our wide array of audit, tax and advisory services.
About the Role
Our Payroll Consulting team is an exciting, fast-paced, ever-changing and growing environment. As employers discovered the difficulties in maintaining compliance with their Industry Award or Enterprise Agreement, and Underpayments became apparent, the need for this service grew. Criminalisation has brought even higher focus to the importance of this area.
We assist clients with understanding whether they are at risk of underpaying their employees in line with the relevant Industry Award or Enterprise Agreement, and calculate those underpayments through historical reconciliations.
We are looking for a Consultant to work across all aspects of payroll compliance projects, focused on Award & EBA employee underpayment reviews and reconciliation, including:
Address matters relating to payroll compliance, industry awards, data cleansing, and reconciliation modelling
Reconciliation tool design, build and implementation (using excel and other platforms)
Analysis of Complex Excel Workbooks for review and simplification
Maintain and monitor project plans, schedules and tasks (in alignment to frameworks)
Organise and attend stakeholder/client meeting, manage client relationships
Documenting and following up on key actions from meetings
About You
Our ideal candidate comes with project management experience from a professional services or consulting background. Analysts who have worked on large data and employment projects outside of this space and can see themselves moving into the wage compliance space, should also consider applying.
Skills and experience required:
Proficient in Excel (essential), Alteryx, Power BI or similar platforms
Proven ability to lead client workshops and meetings, facilitating discussions, gathering requirements, and presenting solutions with confidence
Exposure to payroll compliance / payroll remediation projects would be highly regarded
Knowledge of pay compliance landscape would be advantageous
Highly developed communication and interpersonal skills
