As a Client Payroll Executive, you’ll be part of the team managing PSI’s largest and most complex Canadian payrolls. You’ll take ownership of payrolls end-to-end, working directly with clients to ensure every calculation, deduction, and benefit is handled correctly.

Why This Role Matters Payroll is personal – Getting it right means peace of mind for thousands of employees and their families. You’re the expert advisor – Clients see you as their go-to partner for Canadian payroll questions and challenges. Compliance is critical – Every province has its own rules. Your knowledge of tax, pay codes, and regulations keeps payrolls accurate and clients confident. You drive client success – The level of service you provide is what makes clients stay with PSI for the long term. About the Team You'll Join You’ll be part of our Client Services division, within the specialist team that manages PSI’s largest and most complex Canadian payrolls. While other teams focus on mid-sized or less complex client needs, this group is trusted with the payrolls that require the highest level of accuracy, compliance knowledge, and attention to detail. We don’t just process numbers - we build strong client relationships, solve tough payroll challenges, and deliver the boutique service that sets PSI apart. Working closely with colleagues in Implementation and Operations, you’ll ensure new clients transition smoothly and existing clients continue to receive the expert service they expect. What You'll Be Doing Take full ownership of the payroll and audit function for a portfolio of Canadian clients with high levels of complexity. Schedule, process, and balance payrolls - ensuring every calculation, deduction, stock option, commission, and taxable benefit is handled correctly.

Partner with the Implementation team to review new client setups and support seamless transitions. Identify and suggest opportunities to improve systems, processes, and client outcomes. What We’re Looking For We’re looking for someone with a proven track record in Canadian payroll who thrives on accuracy, compliance, and client care. You should bring: Significant Canadian payroll experience – with solid understanding of legislation and compliance across multiple provinces. Proven experience working in a payroll bureau or outsourced environment, managing payrolls for multiple external clients rather than internal employees. End-to-end payroll processing confidence - including calculations, verifications, deductions, commissions, stock options, and taxable benefits. Demonstrated ability to handle quarterly and year-end reporting (T4s, RL-1s, ROEs, etc.) accurately and on time.
