Payroll Specialist
CFS, Fresno, CA, United States
Salary max: $24.00
Duration: Full Time
Payroll Specialist
Location: Fresno, CA (Onsite)
Salary: $24 – $34/hour DOE
Join an organization where your work supports a large, mission-driven operation serving communities throughout the Central Valley. Our client is a long-established nonprofit organization with extensive regional reach, strong leadership tenure, and a people-first culture. This is a team where payroll accuracy, employee support, and consistency are highly valued.
This is more than a traditional payroll role. You’ll play a key part in processing high-volume payroll, supporting benefits administration, and helping ensure employees across multiple locations are paid accurately and on time.
The Opportunity
As a Payroll Specialist, you’ll manage payroll operations for a large employee population while partnering with finance and HR leadership. This role offers visibility, stability, and the opportunity to contribute within a structured organization.
What You’ll Do
Process bi-weekly payroll for a multi-location workforce of 1,500+ employees
Manage payroll data, deductions, garnishments, and employee changes
Support benefits reconciliation and payroll-related reporting
Assist with annual audits and payroll compliance documentation
Supervise one direct report and partner with internal departments as needed
What We’re Looking For
3+ years of payroll experience in a high-volume environment
Experience with ADP Workforce Now or similar payroll systems preferred
Strong attention to detail and ability to meet strict deadlines
Accounting or nonprofit experience is a plus
Why This Role Stands Out
Stable organization with long-tenured leadership
Strong medical benefits and employer-paid pension plan
High-impact role supporting a large workforce
Opportunity to work closely with finance and HR leadership
Meaningful work within a mission-focused environment
If you’re looking for a role where you can own payroll operations, support employees, and contribute to a respected organization, this is a strong next step.
Timing is everything. Whether you’re actively exploring or open to the right opportunity, we’d welcome the chance to connect. Many of our roles are not posted publicly—reach out to learn more.
