## About this task

This industrial manufacturer making building materials (5,000+ employees) is looking for a senior Payroll Specialist for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Samples payroll across a year and tests rates, deductions and overtime.

The company has a deadline, no one free to own it, and wants a person who has done the same job before. It manufactures physical products, and the office team works to month-end and plant schedules.

The team sits in Las Vegas. Everything can be done remotely; an occasional visit is welcome and never required for the first month. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there.

## What you deliver

- Audit 20 months of payroll for 60 employees and report rate errors, missed deductions and overtime issues.

- A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

- One round of edits after the company's review is included

## How the work runs

- Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared

- Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback

- Last day: final version and handover note

**Duration:** 1 to 2 weeks. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.

## Tools

Excel ADP

## Who fits

- 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Payroll Specialist, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Excel and ADP

- A habit of asking one clarifying question early rather than five late

- Has worked with a distributed team across time zones

## Not included

- Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so

- Managing other contractors or employees

- Travel or work at a fixed location

## 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. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
