About the Role
Employees across the GCC rely on RemotePass every month to be paid accurately and on time, mostly through its network of EOR partners. The company is hiring a Senior Payroll Specialist to own payroll operations across the GCC, led by Saudi Arabia and the UAE, along with Egypt and Jordan. The role reports to the Payroll Team Lead for APAC & GCC.
This is not a pure payroll processing role. GCC payroll is simple on paper, with no income tax and limited statutory contributions. The complexity lies in managing several EOR partners per country, reviewing invoices, handling immigration costs for a largely expat workforce, and making sure partners are funded before payday.
The Senior Payroll Specialist is the main point of contact for partners and works closely with Payroll, Finance, Employee Experience, Customer Success, and EOR Partnerships.
What You’ll Do
- Own the monthly payroll cycle: collect client inputs by the cutoff, send them to partners, and deliver accurate client invoice breakdowns to Finance by the monthly deadline.
- Manage partners by setting clear timelines with each EOR partner, chasing early, and pushing back when needed.
- Keep invoicing accurate by reviewing partner invoices, payroll outputs, and immigration-related costs, and resolving errors before anything is billed or paid.
- Plan funding backwards from payday with Finance, accounting for cross-border transfer times.
- Resolve discrepancies and employee queries through to resolution, and flag blockers to the Team Lead as soon as they appear.
- Make sure banking details, payroll profiles, and visa and immigration requirements are in place before an employee’s first pay run.
- Improve how payroll runs by spotting recurring partner issues and workflow gaps, sharing them with Product and Operations, and documenting processes that scale.
Requirements
- 5+ years in payroll operations, ideally including at least 2 years in an EOR or global payroll environment.
- A clear understanding of how EOR works: the partner is the legal employer, and funds must reach them before payday.
- Hands-on experience managing EOR partners or third-party payroll providers.
- Experience reviewing payroll outputs and payroll invoices for accuracy.
- Highly organised, able to prioritise when every deadline lands in the same week.
- Independent, owning your countries without needing every step checked.
- Advanced written and spoken English, with the ability to explain technical payroll topics in plain language.
- Willing to work Gulf Standard Time (Dubai) hours.
Nice to Have
- Arabic, which is a strong plus.
- Payroll experience in the GCC or APAC, including visa and immigration costs.
- Experience in a high-volume, multi-client payroll environment.
- Experience with payroll platforms, HRIS, or operational systems.
You’ll Thrive in This Role If
- You’d rather set a partner’s deadline than wait on it.
- You tackle the hardest work first instead of leaving it to the last day.
- You raise your hand early when something looks off.
- You like fixing the process, not just the one-off error.
