Payroll & Benefits Specialist
Bonney Plumbing, Electrical, Heating and Air | Rancho Cordova, CA (On-site) | Full-time
$72,000 – $85,000 per year + Annual Bonus

You run payroll. You don't just assist with it.

If you're someone who takes ownership, knows California payroll inside and out, and wants to be the person the HR team counts on — this is your role.

We're Bonney Plumbing, Electrical, Heating and Air, a home services company with four brands, approximately 300 employees, and a HR team that genuinely has each other's backs. We're looking for a Payroll & Benefits Specialist who is ready to own their work, grow with us, and make a real impact on the employees we serve every day.

What You'll Own

• End-to-end biweekly payroll processing across four entities in Paycor
• Prevailing wage and certified payroll compliance
• Full benefits administration — enrollments, life events, open enrollment, and carrier coordination
• Monthly benefit invoice reconciliation
• Onboarding and offboarding documentation
• First-level employee support on pay and benefits questions
• Backup coverage for the Director of HR — real responsibility, not just answering phones

What We're Looking For

You're the right fit if you have:

• 3–5 years of hands-on payroll processing experience, multi-entity a plus
• Prevailing wage experience — strongly preferred
• Working knowledge of California payroll law, wage and hour rules, and final pay requirements
• Experience with Paycor or a comparable HRIS platform
• Strong Excel skills and comfort with data, reporting, and reconciliation
• A high degree of discretion — you handle sensitive information with professionalism

Bonus points for:

• Benefits administration experience (open enrollment, carrier coordination, invoice reconciliation)
• Exposure to CFRA, FEHA, and California-specific compliance
• Experience in trades, field service, or a multi-location environment
• FPC or CPP certification
• Spanish fluency
