About the team and role

At Quantaco, we deliver state-of-the-art predictive financial data services for the Australian hospitality industry. We are the eighth-fastest growing company in Australia as judged by Australia’s flagship financial newspaper, Australian Financial Review in 2022 and we are accelerating through hyper-automation.

Our Hyderabad team is the cross-functional heartbeat of Quantaco, with team members that sit in each of our service lines. We have a range of disciplines that sit within the Hyderabad team including accountants, engineers, data analysts, operations, and general management.

The Payroll & Compliance Processor will deliver the processing of specialized payroll activities including outer limits and annualized wage reconciliations.

Working with the Payroll & Compliance Officer (in Sydney) and the Payroll Processing team in Hyderabad, the objective of this role is to ensure accurate payroll figures for our clients, using our proprietary and systems processing methods. While our clients are familiar with payroll processing, this role will need to know the intricacies of why we need to process outer limits and conduct annual reconciliations in order to answer any basic queries from clients.

Therefore, the Payroll & Compliance Processor needs to have a keen eye for detail and must love processes and process improvement.

Our culture and values
