## About the role

##### Payroll Analyst (Staffing/EOR) | Remote (LATAM) | Full-time

**About the company**

Our client is a fast-growing global HR and payroll platform that helps businesses hire and manage employees compliantly across 180+ regions. Their integrated suite covers Employer of Record services, global payroll, contractor management, benefits, and compliance - powering a borderless economy for companies of every size.

The LATAM payroll team is small and hands-on, and this role is central to how the company delivers accurate, timely payroll across key markets in the region while continuing to expand its footprint globally.

**Role Mission**

Support accurate, compliant, and efficient payroll operations across an assigned portfolio of LATAM markets, including Argentina, Mexico, and Colombia. You'll act as a trusted partner to the global payroll team, local payroll experts, and external providers, ensuring payroll inputs, calculations, and country-specific requirements are managed accurately and consistently. This role combines hands-on payroll delivery with process improvement and support for new market implementation, in a fast-growing international business.

**Key Responsibilities**

- Support end-to-end monthly payroll delivery across assigned LATAM markets - from input collection and review through validation, approvals, funding readiness, and output checks.

- Gather, review, and validate payroll inputs, including new hires, salary changes, bonuses, leave impacts, deductions, terminations, and other employee lifecycle events.

- Review payroll calculations and outputs, investigate discrepancies, complete reconciliations, and help ensure payroll is accurate and ready for approval and payment.

- Maintain payroll calendars, checklists, trackers, calculation logic, validation rules, SOPs, and knowledge base materials for assigned countries.

- Coordinate with local payroll providers and in-country experts to ensure country-specific payroll rules and requirements are reflected accurately in internal systems and workflows.

- Support statutory payroll obligations across assigned countries, including government-mandated contributions, tax and reporting requirements, filing deadlines, and local compliance processes.

- Respond to payroll queries and provide clear, timely support across LATAM working hours, with some overlap with a South Africa-based team during onboarding.

- Liaise with local payroll experts primarily in Spanish and, where relevant, Portuguese; communicate requirements and findings to company stakeholders in English; investigate issues and escalate risks where appropriate.

- Support the onboarding of new payroll markets and transitions from external providers to Playroll-managed processes, including process mapping, testing, validation, and operational readiness.

- Identify opportunities to improve payroll accuracy, controls, efficiency, and scalability through better processes, documentation, systems, and automation.**Required Skills & Experience**

- 2-5 years of experience as a Payroll Analyst or in payroll operations, payroll processing, payroll implementation, or a related operational/compliance role.

- Hands-on experience supporting end-to-end payroll processing, including payroll inputs, calculations, validations, reconciliations, and employee lifecycle changes.

- Strong knowledge of payroll practices and statutory requirements in at least one LATAM market (e.g., Argentina, Mexico, Colombia).

- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate payroll issues and work through detail with accuracy.

- Ability to manage multi-country payroll workstreams, deadlines, and stakeholder requirements across LATAM time zones in a fast-paced, evolving environment.

- Fluent written and spoken English and Spanish.

- High attention to detail and a strong sense of ownership.

- Strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise effectively.

- Comfort working with spreadsheets, process tools, and payroll or operational systems.**Nice to Have**

- Experience across multiple LATAM jurisdictions (e.g., Argentina and Mexico, or Argentina and Colombia).

- Professional proficiency in Brazilian Portuguese.

- Relevant qualification such as Chartered Accountant, Bachelor of Commerce, or similar (open to other backgrounds).

- Experience with EOR, PEO, or global payroll outsourcing platforms (e.g., Deel, Remote, Oyster, ADP, CloudPay, Safeguard).

- Exposure to payroll implementation, in-sourcing, or provider transitions.

- Experience with [Monday.com](http://Monday.com) or similar process/workflow tools.**We're looking for someone who:**

- takes ownership of payroll accuracy and compliance;

- works independently and proactively across multiple countries and time zones;

- is a logical, critical thinker comfortable with ambiguity and complexity;

- enjoys building and improving processes rather than just running them;

- is a strong culture fit - energetic, hands-on, and motivated to work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.**What We Offer**

- Fully remote role, based anywhere in LATAM.

- Opportunity to shape payroll processes in a fast-growing international company.

- Health insurance contribution.

- Share incentive plan.

- Generous PTO plus 4 weeks of "work from anywhere" per year.

- Continuous learning support (courses, mentorship).

- International, ambitious team environment.If you're passionate about payroll accuracy, cross-border compliance, and building reliable processes in a fast-moving global business, we'd love to hear from you.
