Payroll Specialist


Salary: $60,000 – $70,000
Location: Indianapolis, IN 46280
Work Environment: Fully In‑Office




Why This Opportunity Stands Out


This opportunity is with a mission‑driven, values‑based organization that supports a broad employee population across multiple functions. The organization emphasizes service, collaboration, and integrity, creating a workplace culture that is respectful, team‑oriented, and purpose‑focused.


The Payroll Specialist will play an important role within the finance and operations team, ensuring employees are paid accurately and on time while supporting a positive, people‑first environment. This role is ideal for someone who values teamwork, consistency, and aligning their work with an organization’s mission.


Why candidates are drawn to this role:



  • Stable organization with a strong sense of purpose and community

  • Fully on‑site environment with close collaboration across teams

  • Opportunity to work in a values‑driven, people‑focused culture

  • Hands‑on payroll role with clear ownership and responsibility

  • Competitive compensation and solid benefits


This position is a great fit for a payroll professional who enjoys supporting others and being part of a collaborative, respectful workplace.




Key Responsibilities



  • Process payroll accurately and on time for employees on a regular pay cycle

  • Ensure compliance with payroll policies and applicable regulations

  • Maintain payroll records and support reconciliations and reporting

  • Partner with HR and Finance to address payroll questions and resolve issues

  • Support year‑end payroll activities and audits




Qualifications



  • 3+ years of payroll experience

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to meet deadlines

  • Team‑oriented mindset with a positive, culture‑focused approach

  • Comfort working in a faith‑based or religious organization




Additional Details



  • Fully in‑office role based in Indianapolis (46280)

  • Ideal for a Payroll Specialist seeking stability, purpose, and a supportive team environment

  • Experience working in mission‑driven or nonprofit settings is a plus
