[Hiring] Payroll Coordinator @Welo Global

Role Description

The Payroll Coordinator keeps the financial engine running smoothly for a distributed workforce of 300–500 people. Working closely with the Operations Manager, you will:

• Process payments, manage submissions, track overtime and paid time off, and resolve finance tickets with speed and accuracy.
• This role is about precision, follow-through, and great communication — no background in AI is required.
• This is a great starting point for someone who is organized, numbers-savvy, and wants to build a career in operations inside a fast-growing global data company.

Qualifications

• 1-3 years of experience in payroll processing, accounts payable, finance operations, or an administrative role where attention to detail was required.
• Hands-on experience working with large spreadsheets (500+ rows) and using formulas to manage or reconcile data.
• Experience going beyond spreadsheets: building reports or dashboards that make finance data easy to read and act on, and an instinct for automation or system integrations that reduce manual work.

Requirements

• Spreadsheet proficiency: Comfortable building and maintaining complex Excel or Google Sheets workbooks; confident with VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, pivot tables, and data validation.
• Attention to detail: Catches errors before they become problems; double-checks figures before submitting.
• Organization: Manages multiple priorities simultaneously without dropping tasks; keeps records tidy and easy for others to navigate.
• Communication: Writes clear, professional messages in English; can explain a discrepancy or a process step simply.
• Initiative: Spots a gap and closes it without waiting to be asked; flags risks early.
• Independence: Comfortable working autonomously in a remote environment and managing their own workload day-to-day.
• Positive attitude: Approaches repetitive, detail-heavy work with care and consistency; treats colleagues and stakeholders with respect.

Benefits

• The best person for this job follows instructions carefully and asks clarifying questions.
• Takes ownership of their queue; nothing sits unresolved without a status update.
• Works independently.
• Brings a positive, can-do attitude to routine, high-volume work.
• Treats every payment and every record as if an auditor might review it tomorrow.
