- Support iChris system configuration, enhancements and the upcoming upgrade / releases.
- Build strong relationships across People & Culture, Finance and other internal stakeholders.
- Develop and maintain clear processes and documentation to support the team.

- Experience leading a payroll team in a complex environment.
- Strong knowledge of Australian payroll legislation, awards, enterprise agreements and statutory obligations.
- Solid experience with payroll systems, including configuration, upgrades and troubleshooting. iChris experience is required.
- A good understanding of payroll compliance, governance and internal controls, with the ability to identify gaps and implement improvements.
