Help us deliver a better tomorrow

Australia Post is delivering for all Australians. From the vehicles that we drive, to the small businesses that make our communities thrive. We’re delivering for the environment, for our communities, for our customers and for our people. We’re moving forward and we want you to come along for the ride.

About the opportunity

Join our Payroll Governance and Compliance function within IR and Reform, where you’ll play a key role in strengthening payroll confidence across the business. This is a critical assurance role, focused on identifying payroll compliance risks, testing controls and providing independent insight before issues impact pay outcomes.

Working separately from Payroll Operations, you’ll be part of a team that supports defensible decision-making, improves control effectiveness and helps reduce risk across the full payroll lifecycle.

What you’ll deliver with us

You’ll provide independent assuraance over payroll outcomes, controls and payroll-related change, using data, structured analysis and sound judgement to identify risk, test control effectiveness and escalate issues early.

Your work will help ensure payroll outcomes align with enterprise agreements, awards, legislation and policy requirements, while supporting governance forums, audit activity and continuous improvement across payroll compliance.

You’ll also

Analyse payroll and time and attendance data to identify anomalies, trends, systemic risk drivers and emerging compliance issues.
Conduct targeted assurance reviews and deep dives to assess whether payroll controls are operating as intended.
Provide independent compliance input, challenge assumptions and escalate risks through agreed governance pathways where evidence does not support proposed approaches.
Assess the payroll compliance impact of legislative, enterprise agreement and policy changes, including implications for systems, processes and controls.
Develop dashboards, exception reporting and assurance packs that clearly communicate findings, risk implications and recommended actions.

About you

You’re an analytical professional who brings curiosity and confidence working through complex payroll compliance matters. You’re comfortable challenging assumptions in a constructive way, using evidence to form clear and defensible views that support fair, compliant and well-governed pay outcomes.

You thrive in a collaborative environment and can work effectively across Payroll Operations, IR, Legal, Audit, Risk and Technology teams. With a practical, prevention-focused mindset, you’re motivated by improving controls, reducing risk and supporting outcomes that reflect Australia Post’s commitment to trust, integrity and care for its people.

You’ll also need

Experience analysing large payroll, workforce or time and attendance datasets to identify risks, anomalies, trends or control failures.
Strong working knowledge of payroll legislation, enterprise agreements, awards and broader compliance obligations.
Experience supporting payroll assurance, audit, compliance review or remediation scoping activities.
Advanced data and reporting capability, including strong Excel skills and experience using payroll, time and attendance, SAP or reporting tools, ideally including Spinifex.
An understanding of payroll system structures, data flows and control points, with the ability to interpret complex issues and provide clear, evidence-based compliance advice.

How we’ll deliver for you

We invest in you for the long-term, encouraging growth and creativity. We’ll help you develop your skills and steer along a career path that works for you.
We invest in your personal wellbeing, recognise and reward you for your contribution to our success with our new Post Perks and more.
Hybrid working environment, two days working from home
Be part of a team that values trust, inclusivity, empowerment, and safety, and bring your authentic self to work every day.

We’re delivering together

At Australia Post, we acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we operate, live and gather as employees.

We believe our business should reflect the diverse communities we operate in and are proud to be an inclusive workplace for people from all walks of life. We encourage applications from people of all ages, genders and backgrounds including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, People with Disability, LGBTQIA+ and Refugees.

We are one of the largest organisations in Australia to successfully achieve Disability Confident Recruiter status. We are committed to providing an inclusive and barrier-free recruitment process and workplace for those living with a disability and are committed to reviewing and removing bias in our processes to create a gender-equitable recruitment experience and workplace.
