About The Position

This position has a hybrid work arrangement. On average, this means 1 day on-site per week. Please note that this is subject to change due to business priorities. We are looking for an experienced Systems Analyst to join our team as technical support for our SAP SuccessFactors (EC Payroll) environment. This role is designed for a proactive professional who understands the Canadian payroll lifecycle and wants to play a hands-on role in shaping our system's capabilities.

Requirements

Typically 3+ years in a Payroll Systems or HRIS role, with demonstrated intermediate-level proficiency in independent configuration in SAP SuccessFactors (EC Payroll).
Strong foundational knowledge of the Canadian payroll calendar, provincial tax regulations, and year-end statutory reporting.
Comfortable using Google Workspace for documentation, and collaborative data review.
Ability to translate technical "system speak" into clear, actionable information for our Payroll and Finance partners.
A "can-do" attitude toward technical challenges and a desire to build long-term solutions rather than quick fixes.

Nice To Haves

Benefits and Pension experience would be an asset.
SAP SuccessFactors EC Payroll certification an asset.

Responsibilities

Lead the technical readiness for the Canadian payroll year, including the configuration of New Year tax rate updates (CPP/QPP, EI). Maintain system performance and compliance by monitoring and applying support packs in a timely manner.
Support the system-side execution of T4, T4A, and RL-1 processes. This includes performing data validation runs, troubleshooting filing errors, and ensuring the final transmission to the CRA and Revenu Québec is successful.
Configure, support and optimize key payroll processes, including gross-to-net calculations, tax reporting, garnishments, third party remittances, postings to FI system, year end activities, and accrual setups.
Translate complex payroll requirements into technical specifications. You won't just identify problems; you will design and implement enhancements within EC Payroll to automate manual work.
Proactively identify "pain points" in the current system setup and propose configuration changes or new features to streamline the payroll experience.
Evaluate bi-annual SuccessFactors updates to identify new functionalities that could benefit the Canadian payroll function. Lead the testing and deployment of these features.
Act as the primary technical partner to the Payroll team, helping them understand "under the hood" system logic and supporting them through complex pay scenarios.
Partner with Finance, IT, and HR teams to ensure end-to-end payroll process efficiency and seamless integration with downstream systems (e.g., General Ledger or Third-Party providers).
Work alongside internal technical architects or external consultants to ensure all system enhancements align with our broader HRIS roadmap and security standards.
