## About this task

This digital bank serving small businesses (1,001–5,000 employees) is looking for a manager Payroll Specialist for an ongoing part-time engagement of 2–4 h a week. Sets up new hires and finals correctly, including state forms.

Workload peaks and dips, so a few fixed hours a week fit better than a full-time seat. It is a regulated bank; the work is documented and reviewed before anything is signed off.

The company prefers a person who can come to Atlanta for kickoff and the final review; the rest is remote. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call. About 1 hour a week should overlap with the team's day (ET).

## What you deliver

- Set up eight new hires in four states and prepare final pay for three leavers.

- 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

- Friday: 15-minute check-in to agree the week's items

- Tuesday: main working block (2 hours)

- Wednesday: hand-off note with what shipped and what is open

**Duration:** 12 weeks, renewable. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.
