At Diversicare, we're driven by our mission to "Improve every life we touch by providing exceptional healthcare and exceeding expectations." This commitment extends to our team members, and we're seeking a dynamic leader to elevate our payroll operations to new heights.

Imagine this: You're not just processing paychecks; you're the architect of a highly efficient and compliant payroll system that directly impacts the lives of thousands of healthcare professionals across nearly 50 skilled nursing and long-term care centers in five states. You're a strategic partner, advising internal stakeholders and ensuring seamless integration with our HR systems.

Here's how you'll make a real impact:

• Achieve 100% on-time and accurate payroll processing across all operating companies (weekly, bi-weekly, and off-cycle) consistently.
  This means no missed paydays, no errors, and complete peace of mind for our employees.
• Reduce payroll-related errors and discrepancies within the first year.
  You'll implement robust audit practices and data analysis to identify and address potential issues proactively.
• Successfully optimize UKG system functionalities related to payroll by collaborating closely with the HRIS Team.
  You'll leverage your deep UKG expertise to maximize efficiency and compliance.
• Overhaul the payroll tax administration, reducing dependence on external vendors.
  You'll ensure a seamless and fully compliant payroll tax effort, returning the payroll tax function to the Diversicare payroll team and reducing our reliance on an external vendor.
• Maintain a 100% compliance rate with all federal, state, and local tax regulations and garnishment laws related to payroll.
  You'll stay abreast of evolving regulations and ensure our processes are always up-to-date.
• Develop and mentor a high-performing payroll team, resulting in a quantifiable improvement in team performance metrics (e.g., efficiency, accuracy, responsiveness).
  You'll invest in your team's growth and development, fostering a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.
• Build strong, collaborative relationships with key stakeholders (HR, Finance, Operations) and external vendors, resulting in improved communication, collaboration and service delivery.
  You will be a trusted advisor and effective communicator.

To excel in this role, you'll need:

• Proven success in leading and managing multi-state payroll operations for organizations with a complex payroll structure.
• Deep expertise in UKG Pro and UKG Dimensions, including implementation, configuration, and optimization.
• A strong understanding of federal, state, and local payroll tax regulations, garnishment laws, and other relevant compliance requirements.
• Exceptional leadership skills with a demonstrated ability to build, motivate, and develop high-performing teams.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and stakeholder management skills.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a keen attention to detail.
