Full Job Posting

  • Build & Lead the Payroll Team: Grow, structure, and manage the payroll function, addressing today's thin team coverage and reducing key-person risk by hiring and developing a more diverse, resilient team.
  • Own End-to-End Payroll Governance: Oversee accurate, on-time payroll processing across all business units (HQ, Snoomart, Grocery, Garage, Accommodation) and worker categories (staff, full-time riders/drivers, 3PL).
  • Strengthen Controls & Segregation of Duties: Implement proper segregation of duties, approval workflows, and review controls across payroll processing that are currently under- resourced given the team's size.
  • Ensure Multi-Country Compliance: Ensure payroll complies with labor law, Wage Protection System (WPS), and social security requirements across Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, and other relevant markets.
  • Manage Leave, Settlements & Disputes: Oversee leave and final settlement processing, and act as the escalation point for complex payroll disputes and queries.
  • Partner on Payroll Systems: Work with the Automation & AI Engineering team to modernize payroll workflows (e.g., Keka integration, bank file automation) as part of the wider Dynamics 365 transformation.
  • Manage Cash & Distribution Oversight: Provide oversight of cash salary distribution and COD- related payroll adjustments for fleet and frontline teams.
  • Report on Payroll Metrics: Deliver payroll cost, headcount, and compliance reporting to Finance leadership.
  • Build Succession & Coverage: Establish cross-training and succession plans so payroll processing is never dependent on any single individual or nationality group.
  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Human Resources, or a related field.
  • Experience: 6+ years of payroll experience, including at least 2–3 years in a payroll leadership or management role, ideally across multiple countries or business units.
  • Multi-Country Payroll Knowledge: Strong understanding of GCC payroll and labor law requirements (Qatar, Kuwait, Oman), including WPS and end-of-service benefit calculations.
  • Systems Knowledge: Experience with payroll systems (e.g., Keka) and ERP integration; exposure to Dynamics 365 is a plus.
  • Team Building: Proven ability to build, diversify, and develop a team, with a deliberate focus on redundancy and succession planning.
  • Controls & Governance: Strong understanding of payroll controls and segregation of duties.
  • Communication: Confident communicator able to manage sensitive payroll queries and disputes professionally.
  • Adaptability: Comfortable scaling a function to match a fast-growing, multi-brand, multi-country business.
