Job Description

At SIXT, our People & Culture team works hard behind the scenes to keep our people operations running smoothly — and payroll is at the heart of it all. As a Payroll Analyst, you will own end-to-end payroll processing across the U.S. and Canada, drive data integrity, and deliver the reporting and insights that help our Finance and HR teams make smart decisions. You will work in a hybrid setup out of our U.S. office, collaborating closely with cross-functional partners in a fast-paced, internationally minded environment. If you are a detail-driven payroll professional who thrives on accuracy, compliance, and continuous improvement, apply now and join Team Orange.

YOUR ROLE AT SIXT

• You execute end-to-end U.S. and Canadian payroll cycles — including regular, off-cycle, bonus, and stock runs — ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and strong internal controls
• You prepare payroll journal entries, reconcile payroll-related GL accounts, and support month-end close activities including flux analysis and accruals
• You build recurring and ad-hoc payroll reports covering headcount, labor cost, taxes, overtime, and KPIs, and deliver variance analysis with actionable insights to Finance and HR
• You manage U.S. federal, state, and local tax reconciliations and remittances, and oversee Canadian statutory obligations including CPP/QPP, EI, income tax, T4/T4A slips, and ROE support
• You ensure compliance with evolving U.S. and Canadian payroll legislation, translating regulatory changes into updated processes, system configurations, and communications
• You contribute to payroll system testing and improvement projects, supporting integrations and new functionality across platforms such as Workday, UKG, or ADP

YOUR SKILLS MATTER

• Experience  You bring 3+ years of payroll experience with meaningful exposure to both U.S. multi-state and Canadian multi-province payroll processing, including tax reconciliations and year-end filings
• Accounting Knowledge  You have solid payroll accounting skills, including journal entries, GL reconciliations, accruals, and month-end close deliverables
• Tools/Systems  You have hands-on experience with at least one enterprise HR/Payroll platform (e.g., Workday, UKG, or ADP) and are comfortable working within ERP/GL environments such as SAP, Oracle, or NetSuite. Must have experience in ADP GlobalView
• Analytics  You are proficient in advanced Excel or Google Sheets (pivots, lookups, large datasets) and ideally have exposure to BI tools such as Power BI or Tableau
• Education  You hold a Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, HR, or a related field — or bring equivalent professional experience; a Canadian PCP designation (or in progress) and/or a U.S. FPC/CPP certification are a plus
• Soft Skills  You are detail-oriented and proactive, with strong communication skills that allow you to partner effectively with HR, Accounting, and external providers in a fast-moving, compliance-driven environment

WHAT WE OFFER

• Comprehensive Benefits Package Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short- and long-term disability, and a 401(k) retirement plan
• AI at your fingertips  From day one, you'll have access to Claude by Anthropic and SIXTgpt, SIXT's own AI platform, to supercharge your work. We invest in every team member's AI journey: encouraging experimentation, building knowledge, and making sure you're ahead of the curve
• Paid Time Off & Sick Vacation, sick leave, and company holidays to support work-life balance
• Career Growth Opportunities Exposure to high-impact projects within a growing, global organization
• Hybrid Work Environment A flexible hybrid model, where applicable, supporting collaboration and focus: 4 days in office, 1 remote day
