2 days ago
BURN is seeking a detail-obsessed analyst to own internal payroll audits (employees, contractors, and sales agents), strengthen payroll controls, and turn HR data into decision-ready insights. You'll design and run recurring payroll audits and reconcile variances. You'll also build dashboards across hiring, engagement, compensation, and performance, and act as a BCP backup for payroll execution. As we transition personnel records to Microsoft Dynamics NAV/Business Central, you'll champion data quality, retention/privacy, and enable system change-logs for auditability. This role is critical to payroll accuracy, People data integrity, operational efficiency, and compliance.
Duties and Responsibilities
- Payroll audit & compliance
- Design and run recurring internal payroll audits (e.g., monthly/quarterly): validate gross-to-net, statutory deductions, benefits, and bank details; investigate anomalies; document findings and remediation.
- Establish and monitor payroll internal controls: segregation of duties, maker-checker approvals, access controls, audit trails, and regular reconciliations.
- Sales-agent commission audits: reconcile ERP sales data to commissionable events; test plan logic, rate tables, caps/floors, clawbacks, and draws; sample transactions, recalc payouts, and sign off pre-pay.
- Coordinate with Finance/Legal on external inquiries, employment verifications, and support for regulatory or investor audits; maintain audit workpapers and evidence.
- HR data analytics & reporting
- Build and maintain dashboards/KPIs across hiring funnels, engagement, compensation, attendance/leave, and performance; deliver trends, variance/exceptions, and predictive insights to leadership.
- Aid the HR Team to maintain clean HR data, with employee data moving 100% to the Microsoft NAV ERP - define data mappings, quality checks, and reconciliations.
- Run ad-hoc analysis as needed
- Payroll operations (BCP)
- Serve as a documented BCP resource to execute payroll end-to-end when needed; keep SOPs current, with test runs and checklists.
- Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (Accounting/Finance, Data/Analytics, HR, or similar).
- 3–5+ years in payroll audit/compliance, HR data analysis, or related analytical roles.
- Hands-on experience with HRIS/ATS and ERP (Microsoft Dynamics NAV/Business Central preferred); advanced Excel/Sheets.
- Strong grasp of internal controls (preventive/detective/corrective), reconciliations, sampling, and evidence retention.
- Excellent communication - able to explain complex findings to technical and non-technical stakeholders; crisp documentation.
BURN does not charge a fee at any stage of the recruitment process (application, interview, meeting, processing, training, or any other fees).
