WHAT YOU’LL DO

As the Senior Manager, International Payroll, you will be responsible for leading the end-to-end payroll operations across the EMEA region, with a focus on compliance, accuracy, and operational excellence. Based in Ireland, you will directly manage two U.S.-based payroll team members and collaborate with global stakeholders to ensure efficient payroll delivery. You will serve as a regional subject matter expert and help drive strategic initiatives—including the migration from ADP Streamline to ADP Celergo. This is a hands-on role within an audited environment, ideal for someone who combines precision with leadership and thrives in complex, fast-paced global settings. 

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

A driven and detail-oriented payroll leader with international experience and a strong accounting foundation. You are execution-focused, boundary-conscious when partnering with HR and Finance, and confident managing payroll operations remotely. You bring the ability to deliver results while operating as an extension of a high-performing, U.S.-based leadership team 

THE SCHEDULE:   This position is based in Ireland. Remote flexibility may be considered, but local presence is strongly preferred due to regional coverage and collaboration needs.   

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:  

• Manage end-to-end payroll processing across EMEA, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with country-specific laws and company policies. 

• Supervise and develop two U.S.-based direct reports, providing ongoing mentorship, performance feedback, and escalation support. 

• Partner with the Senior Director of Global Payroll to support the regional migration from ADP Streamline to ADP Celergo, including pre- and post-go-live activities. 

• Collaborate with HR teams to ensure accurate and timely data transfer between the human resources management system and payroll system (ADP). 

• Act as the EMEA payroll subject matter expert, providing guidance to internal stakeholders and addressing complex regional payroll escalations. 

• Maintain compliance with internal controls, audit standards, and SOX regulations within a documented and reviewed payroll workflow. 

• Coordinate closely with HR and Finance while maintaining clear ownership of payroll deliverables (e.g., ensuring payroll isn’t responsible for upstream HR or Finance tasks). 

• Prepare general ledger journal entries, reconcile payroll accounts, and support internal and external audit requests. 

• Create and maintain EMEA-specific payroll SOPs and documentation. 

• Monitor changes in payroll laws and tax regulations in EMEA countries and ensure timely updates to payroll processes. 

• Support ad hoc payroll data analysis and special projects as required 

• Collaborate across functions and time zones, ensuring cohesive communication with U.S. leadership and regional teams. 

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field. 

• Minimum of 7 years of payroll experience, with at least 3 years focused on international/EMEA payroll. 

• Strong background in payroll accounting, including cash reconciliation, journal entries, and compliance. 

• Demonstrated leadership experience with the ability to manage global teams and remote employees. 

• Experience working with ADP platforms; exposure to ADP Celergo implementation is highly desirable. 

• Knowledge of European labor laws and tax regulations; fluency in German or Dutch is a strong plus. 

• Comfort operating in an audited payroll environment with high accountability. 

• Proven ability to navigate cross-functional boundaries, especially when interacting with HR and Finance. 

• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and comfort working with large datasets. 

• Excellent communication and organizational skills with the ability to prioritize and follow through independently. 

• High level of professional intensity, attention to detail, and a mindset of ownership and accountability.
