About The Role As our company experiences rapid global expansion, we are restructuring our payroll function to build a world-class financial control environment.

Reporting directly to the Corporate Controller, the Global Payroll Manager will own global payroll strategy, operational execution, data integrity, and internal controls across all operating jurisdictions (including the Philippines, Colombia, India, and Australia as well as future expansion regions).

You will serve as the bridge between HR (master data owners) and the accounting & finance team who will calculate and process payroll. Additionally, you will coordinate with outsource 3rd-party Payroll/Treasury providers in overseas locations who will support our payroll operations as we grow our regional presence in these locations. This role demands a hands-on payroll subject matter expert who can establish rigorous financial controls while working cross- functionally to ensure accurate, timely, and compliant pay execution worldwide.
