Collects changes, runs the payroll and checks the register. The person who did this left, and the company would rather bring in an experienced part-timer than rush a permanent hire. It is a retailer with stores and an online channel, and the team works to a weekly trading rhythm. The work is fully remote. Any location in Canada works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected. ## What you deliver - Run the bi-weekly payroll for 75 employees, compare to the prior run and resolve variances above 5%. - Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day - Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call - A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends ## What a week looks like - Monday: pick up the queue and confirm priorities - Midweek: two short working sessions of one to two hours - Wednesday: update sent before the company's end of day **Duration:** 12 weeks, renewable. Accepted after the walkthrough. Edits requested within three working days are part of the price. ## Tools ADP Gusto Rippling ## Who fits - 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Payroll Specialist, or the equivalent mix of roles - Comfortable working in ADP, Gusto and Rippling - Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate ### Nice to have - Experience in a similar industry - Used to short written handovers ## Not included - On-call availability outside the agreed window - Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately - Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so ## How you get paid - The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice. - Deftridge pays you in CAD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable.
