Job Description

About the Team

You will join a high-performing Data Analytics team focused on wage and payroll compliance across a diverse client base. The team combines deep technical expertise with strong industrial relations and legal knowledge to help organisations identify, assess, and remediate wage compliance risks.

Working alongside data specialists, legal experts, and business advisors, the team plays a critical role in supporting fair and compliant workplace practices across Australia. The environment is collaborative, purpose-driven, and focused on delivering high-impact outcomes for clients and their employees.

Your Opportunity

As a Data Analytics Associate Director specialising in wage and payroll compliance, you will lead complex engagements to help clients identify and remediate breaches relating to Enterprise Agreements, Modern Awards, National Employment Standards, and long service leave legislation.

This is a purpose-driven role where your work directly contributes to fair and equitable outcomes for employees. Wage compliance is not just about data, it is about ensuring individuals receive their correct entitlements while supporting organisations to build trust and integrity in their practices.

You will leverage your expertise in business analysis, data investigation, and advanced analytics to identify, investigate, quantify, and report on wage underpayment matters. Working closely with clients and multidisciplinary teams, you will guide solution design, uncover root causes, and support sustainable remediation outcomes.

How Are You Extraordinary

We are looking for individuals who demonstrate:

Critical thinking, ability to interpret complex payroll and legislative requirements and translate them into practical insights
Attention to detail, strong focus on accuracy and quality in high-risk and sensitive engagements
Stakeholder communication, ability to clearly explain technical findings to both technical and non-technical audiences

Key Responsibilities

Lead the technical design and development of data models using SQL, Alteryx, or Excel to identify and quantify wage compliance risks
Translate complex industrial relations and legislative requirements into clear technical specifications for analysis
Work with subject matter specialists to define business requirements, resolve ambiguity, and identify relevant data sources
Engage with clients to identify root causes of wage compliance issues and support remediation planning
Assess data quality, validate datasets, and determine impacted employee cohorts
Oversee testing processes, conduct root cause analysis, and assess potential fixes
Review and prepare working papers, reports, and methodologies to support analysis outcomes
Support proposal development and contribute to broader business development initiatives
Drive the development of internal data analytics tools, frameworks, and reusable assets
Provide leadership, coaching, and mentorship to team members

Experience

Extensive experience analysing large and complex payroll and time and attendance datasets to identify and quantify wage compliance issues
At least 8 years of experience developing data models using SQL, Alteryx, or Excel
Proven track record of leading teams of data analysts, including task allocation, methodology design, and quality review
Strong capability in translating complex business and legal requirements into technical specifications and analytical approaches
Experience preparing reports and methodologies for presentation to senior stakeholders, regulators, or legal representatives
Strong project management skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and timelines
Experience in a professional services environment is preferred

Qualifications

Tertiary qualifications in a relevant discipline such as finance, accounting, law, business, engineering, information technology, or a related field
