Job Description & Summary

At PwC, we help clients build trust and reinvent so they can turn complexity into competitive advantage. We’re a tech-forward, people-empowered network with more than 370,000 people in 149 countries.

You'll be part of our Payroll team within Managed Services, supporting Singapore-based clients with practical, high-quality payroll solutions that help them meet Singapore statutory requirements (including IRAS filings) and run their operations with confidence. In this role, you'll combine technical payroll knowledge, attention to detail and a client-focused mindset to deliver reliable outcomes and continuous improvement for our Singapore client portfolio.

Key accountabilities

• Coordinate and work closely with our internal/external clients and payroll vendor to provide relevant payroll information as well as to ensure accuracy, completeness and timeliness in the payment of salaries
• Ensure that Returns on Employees Remuneration and Notification of a Non-Citizen Employee's Cessation of Employment or Departure from Singapore are duly reported to IRAS within the stipulated timeline
• Provide advice and make decisions on complicated payroll cases within the stipulated service standards, ensuring the confidentiality of payroll data is safeguarded
• Assist in business process streamlining and re-engineering to drive work efficiency

Skills, experience and qualifications

• 1 to 3 years of solid working experience in a payroll environment; exposure to Singapore payroll and statutory requirements (e.g., CPF, IRAS submissions) is a strong advantage, but not mandatory — training and support will be provided
• Candidates from an outsourced/shared services payroll environment (including those supporting regional or multi-country payroll, such as Malaysia-Singapore setups) will be advantageous
• Proficient in MS Office and proven experience using payroll software
• Ability to multi-task, prioritise and handle confidential information with sensitivity
• Strong team player with a good work attitude and solid interpersonal communication skills
