As a vital member of the Finance Shared Services Center, you’ll play a key role in ensuring the completeness and accuracy of payroll data, prevailing-wage compliance, and multi-entity payroll processing across our construction operating companies. You will partner closely with field operations and HR to deliver accurate, on-time pay in a high-volume, multi-state environment.
Duties/Responsibilities
Weekly Payroll Processing
- Process weekly payroll for multiple operating entities in the ERP (Vista by Viewpoint).
- Import, validate, and correct time data; verify hours, jobs, and phases against control totals and resolve exceptions before each pay run is finalized.
- Enter and maintain earnings, deductions, stipends, garnishments, benefit elections, and shift differentials with a high degree of accuracy.
- Support the weekly pay date cadence and process off-cycle, manual, and correction checks as needed.
Certified Payroll & Prevailing-Wage Compliance
- Prepare, review, and submit certified payroll reports (WH-347 and state equivalents) for Davis-Bacon and state prevailing-wage projects on required deadlines.
- Apply the correct wage determinations, fringe-benefit rates, and worker/trade classifications by project and jurisdiction.
- Maintain compliance data and reporting through AASHTOWare and applicable agency/labor-compliance portals.
- Respond to labor-compliance audits, agency inquiries, and general contractor requests with accurate, well-documented support.
Data Reconciliation
- Reconcile payroll registers week-over-week, validating rate, hours, deduction, and stipend changes against control totals and supporting documentation.
- Reconcile hours across various sources to confirm completeness before processing.
- Reconcile payroll liabilities, tax withholdings, and benefit deductions to supporting records and funding reports.
- Research and resolve pay discrepancies, missed hours, and coding errors in coordination with field operations and project teams.
Minimum Requirements
- Experience: 3+ years of full-cycle payroll processing experience; construction, prevailing-wage, or multi-entity environment strongly preferred.
- Compliance-Oriented: Working knowledge of certified payroll, Davis-Bacon/prevailing wage, WH-347 reporting, and multi-state payroll tax.
- System-Savvy: Experience with Vista by Viewpoint or a comparable construction ERP is a plus; strong Excel skills (SUMIFS, pivot tables, reconciliation workbooks). AASHTOWare and HCSS experience is a plus.
- Detail-Driven: Exceptional accuracy under weekly deadlines, with the discipline to reconcile to control totals before finalizing.
- Collaborative: Comfortable partnering with field operations, project teams, and HR to resolve pay and time issues quickly and professionally.
Core Competencies
- Accuracy & Data Integrity — treats reconciliation and control totals as non-negotiable.
- Deadline Management — thrives in a recurring, high-volume weekly cycle.
- Compliance Mindset — keeps current on wage-and-hour and prevailing-wage requirements.
- Problem-Solving — investigates root causes rather than patching symptoms.
