Payroll Accounting Jobs description

''Payroll accounting'' refers to accounting or financial reporting of the salaries and wages paid to the staff of an organization. Those in payroll accounting jobs have more specific job duties than general accounting personnel and usually are part of an HR or accounts department. The most common positions on a payroll accounting team are payroll analyst, payroll clerk, payroll intern, payroll assistant, payroll accountant, payroll accounting manager, payroll accounting administrator, payroll specialist, and accounting director. Payroll accountants manage the primary duties of payroll accounting, while assistants, interns, and clerks provide them with accounting help or administrative support.

Payroll accounting positions are often available with organizations with 300 or more employees. In smaller organizations payroll accounting may be performed by a financial accountant or management accountant. Depending on the job profile, applicants may need to have bachelor's degrees in accounting and be certified as CPAs or CGAs. Excellent mathematical ability and attention to detail are key traits of successful payroll accountants.
