Sets up new hires and finals correctly, including state forms. The team is stretched and wants steady, predictable help instead of another full-time hire. It is a retailer with stores and an online channel, and the team works to a weekly trading rhythm. The team sits in Denver. Everything can be done remotely; an occasional visit is welcome and never required for the first month. The company prefers early-morning hours, before a normal working day starts. About 1 hour a week should overlap with the team's day (MT). ## What you deliver - Set up eight new hires in four states and prepare final pay for three leavers. - A written update every Thursday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked - Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day - A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends ## What a week looks like - Tuesday: 15-minute check-in to agree the week's items - Wednesday: main working block (2 hours) - Thursday: 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. ## Tools Gusto Rippling Deel ## Who fits - 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Payroll Specialist, or the equivalent mix of roles - Comfortable working in Gusto, Rippling and Deel - Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate ### Nice to have - Has worked with a distributed team across time zones - Used to short written handovers ## Not included - Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so - On-call availability outside the agreed window - Managing other contractors or employees ## 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 USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable.
