Payroll on Your Terms: Building an Operating Model Ready for What’s Next

Payroll has always been judged on one thing: paying people accurately and on time. That standard hasn’t changed. But Payday Super, rising wage-compliance scrutiny, legacy technology and a tightening payroll skills market are putting new pressure on how Australian payroll operates.

22 October11:00 am - 12:00 pmOnline

Payday Super is the latest reminder of how quickly payroll teams can be required to respond to change. But transformation doesn’t have to start with the next compliance deadline, technology constraint or operational issue.

Join Zalaris and the Australian Payroll Association to explore how payroll leaders can take a more proactive approach - reducing cost and complexity, embracing AI and automation, strengthening capability and choosing an operating model that works for their organisation.

The goal: build a payroll function that is ready to adapt to what comes next, on your terms.

You’ll learn:

  • Why the best time to rethink payroll may be before you have to.
  • Where cost and complexity really sit across payroll operations.
  • Where AI and automation can realistically reduce manual work and create greater flexibility.
  • How to address payroll skills, capacity and key-person dependency.
  • How In-house, Hybrid and Managed payroll models support different organisational needs — and how to choose the right approach for yours.
  • How to build a payroll operating model that is better prepared for whatever comes next.

Who should attend: Payroll leaders, CHROs and HR/HR Technology leaders responsible for payroll strategy, transformation, technology or operating-model decisions.
