R.D. Olson Construction is a commercial general contractor specializing in hospitality and multifamily projects. Recognized as a Top Workplace by the Orange County Business Journal for five consecutive years, the company fosters a culture of precision and reliability. This role sits within a tight-knit team where accuracy and compliance are paramount to our operational success.
We are seeking a hands-on Payroll Manager to own the end-to-end payroll function. This is a technical, detail-driven position designed for a professional with a strong accounting or payroll background who enjoys owning the numbers. Unlike a generalist HR role, this position requires deep expertise in processing, compliance, and system integrity.
As the internal subject-matter expert, you will ensure the accuracy and timeliness of our weekly and biweekly payroll cycles. Your day will involve auditing data for proper pay rates and deductions, reconciling payroll registers to the general ledger, and managing system configurations. You will serve as the primary point of contact for resolving complex discrepancies, ensuring strict adherence to federal, state, and local laws—particularly California wage and hour requirements. Additionally, you will oversee the administration of our benefit programs and partner with Accounting and HR leadership to drive process improvements.
Candidates interested in this opportunity should submit their application directly through our careers portal. The selection process focuses on verifying technical proficiency in in-house payroll processing and a deep understanding of California compliance. Selected candidates will be invited for interviews to discuss their experience with full-cycle payroll and system implementations.
R.D. Olson Construction is an equal opportunity employer committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce. We consider qualified applicants regardless of background, race, religion, gender, or other protected characteristics.
