Job Description

Senior Payroll Tax Analyst

Salary: $80k - $90k

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

  • Step into a leadership role with impact—manage a team of 4–5 and help build out structure and process from the ground up
  • Hybrid work flexibility with a collaborative, people-first leadership team
  • Get exposure to cross-border payroll tax (U.S. & Canadian)—great for expanding your technical scope
  • Big emphasis on documentation and process improvement—your ideas will be heard and implemented
  • Benefits include competitive PTO, strong 401(k) match, and a close-knit, mission-driven team

Key Responsibilities:

  • Oversee U.S. and Canadian payroll tax compliance, including federal, state/provincial, and local regulations
  • Own quarterly and annual payroll tax reconciliations (e.g., 941s, T4s, W-2s, year-end balancing)
  • Lead audit preparation for federal/state payroll tax audits and liaise with external auditors and agencies
  • Partner cross-functionally with payroll, HR, and finance to ensure accurate reporting and issue resolution
  • Drive the creation and maintenance of standard operating procedures (SOPs) and internal controls
  • Stay current on tax law changes and proactively recommend system or process adjustments
  • Manage relationships with external vendors or software providers to ensure service levels and compliance

Qualifications:

  • 3+ years of payroll tax experience, with some exposure to Canadian payroll preferred
  • Prior supervisory experience or strong leadership skills in a tax/accounting function
