We're on the lookout for a Senior Payroll Officer to join our Finance team. In this critical role, you’ll lead the end-to-end processing of payroll for our diverse, national workforce — ensuring accuracy, compliance, and a smooth experience for our people.

  • Interpret awards and agreements, especially the Children’s Services Award
  • Ensure compliance with legislation including PAYG, Superannuation, Payroll Tax, STP, NES and Fair Work
  • Manage payroll tax, leave accruals, entitlements, and EOFY reconciliations
  • Drive process improvement initiatives and maintain data integrity in our HRIS
  • Act as the Subject Matter Expert during our payroll platform transformation — from configuration to go-live support

 

THE BENEFITS

In return for your experience and passion, Camp Australia offers:

  • A competitive salary package
  • Blended, flexible working arrangements.
  • Wellbeing days and your birthday off are just some of the other benefits on offer to ensure our team feel appreciated and supported.
  • 12 month full time contract 
  • Flare Benefits for exclusive savings on fuel, groceries, tech, fashion, dining, entertainment, and more!

 

ABOUT YOU

  • 5+ years of experience in end-to-end payroll, including award-based environments
  • Strong technical knowledge of payroll systems (HR3 experience a plus)
  • A deep understanding of Australian payroll legislation and compliance
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills
  • A detail-oriented mindset with a passion for continuous improvement
  • Proven ability to thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
