Lead with purpose. Shape progress for a growing city.
Join a team where accuracy, customer service and teamwork make a difference every week. As a Payroll Administrator, you support the production of Council’s weekly payroll, helping ensure employees are paid correctly and on time. Your work supports the people who deliver services across Blacktown City.
