Sr. Payroll Specialist | Reading-based | Polish or Czech speaking

OpenText is a global leader in information management, where innovation, creativity, and collaboration are the key components of our corporate culture. As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to partner with highly regarded companies, tackle complex issues, and contribute to projects that shape the future of digital transformation.

Your impact:

• As a Sr. HRSS Payroll Specialist, you will play a critical role in ensuring the timely and accurate processing of payroll across multiple OpenText entities globally.
• Leveraging your expertise in payroll and HCM platforms, you will own the end-to-end payroll cycle — monitoring inputs, reconciling outputs, analysing accrual balances, and managing complex country-specific requirements.
• Your work directly supports employee trust, regulatory compliance, and the integrity of our financial operations.

What The Role Offers:

• Ownership of end-to-end payroll processing for complex, multi-national entities with country-specific tax and pension requirements.
• A collaborative environment working alongside lead specialists, senior managers, and key stakeholders including HR, Legal, Tax, and internal/external auditors.
• The opportunity to act as a key contact point for auditors and to develop meaningful relationships with local and regional tax authorities.
• Exposure to industry-leading platforms including ADP Globalview, SAP SuccessFactors, and finance general ledger systems.
• A role with real decision-making responsibility, where your ability to identify risks, elevate issues, and recommend corrective actions makes a tangible business impact.
• Scope to apply additional language skills in servicing international payrolls, engaging directly with vendors, legal authorities, and auditors across the countries you support.

What You Need To Succeed:

• Several years of direct payroll experience in a multinational company, with strong knowledge of country-specific payroll tax processes and regulations.
• Additional language skills such as Polish or Czech would be highly beneficial in supporting payroll operations across Central and Eastern Europe.
• Hands-on experience with outsourced payroll platforms such as ADP Globalview, Streamline, or Celergo, and familiarity with SAP SuccessFactors HCM.
• The ability to work independently on complex payroll issues, presenting well-reasoned solutions and escalating risks in a timely and structured manner.
• High standards of integrity and confidentiality in handling sensitive employee and financial data.
• A college diploma or equivalent professional experience, with a payroll certification preferred (e.g., FPC or CPP).
