I am a Payroll and HR Operations professional with hands-on experience supporting employees across India and global locations. My work focuses on end-to-end payroll delivery, statutory compliance, audits, benefits administration, and day-to-day HR operations, with a strong emphasis on accuracy, timelines, and regulatory requirements.I regularly handle complex payroll cases, work with global stakeholders, manage payroll vendors, and operate system-driven processes using tools such as Workday, payroll platforms, and Excel. I work closely with HR, Finance, and leadership teams to resolve issues, improve processes, and ensure business continuity without disruption.I see payroll not just as a task, but as a responsibility that directly impacts employees and the organisation. My approach is practical, detail-focused, and based on taking ownership and getting things right the first time.My core strengths include payroll governance, compliance management, process improvement, and clear stakeholder communication.
