Payroll Team Lead
CurrentThis year, my team & I successfully converted our Company Driver Payroll from Bi-Weekly to Weekly. Since I was hired, I have overhauled the processes for bi-weekly & weekly payroll, auditing, recording, etc. Job duties are, but not limited to; creating improved procedures, cross-training on new & current processes, building check lists for my team, consistent email & phone traffic daily from drivers, managers, C-level employees, other departments, etc. I send payroll deadline reminders weekly & bi-weekly, ensure we receive all pay items from each center manager (who are located in states across the US) timely, as well as enter it to pay the drivers every week. I also track new hires, terms, leaves of absence and transfers. Process driver promotions monthly, prepare a weekly Comdata wire for accounting & audit uniform returns for terminated drivers. Provide earnings data to recruiting & management. Recently, I worked with the safety department to re-vamp the training record & pay process for all new hire trainees & current certified trainers. I also issue off-cycle payments and advances, record & chargeback if necessary. I have been instrumental in many projects including a company wide driver pay rate increase, in depth audits, Covid leave processing & recording. This is a very dynamic role, my duties have evolved in my time here & are still evolving.
