What this job can offer you We’re looking for a GP Lead to own and deliver Italy payroll implementations for Remote customers—taking complex, real-world setups and turning them into clean data, robust configurations, and reliable go-lives. This is not a traditional “run payroll end-to-end” role. Your impact is in making sure customers start on the right foundation: the right structure, the right rules, the right migrations, and the right expectations. You’ll lead onboarding projects, run deep due diligence (beyond checklists), and work cross-functionally with Operations, Product, and Engineering to continuously improve how implementations are delivered at scale. What you bring Proven, hands-on experience implementing Zucchetti Paghe Infinity (mandatory): configuration, data imports/migrations, setup validation, go-live support. Italy payroll experience, ideally in a consultancy/payroll bureau, outsourcer, or in-house payroll function with exposure to implementations/subsidiary transitions. Strong understanding of payroll foundations that affect implementation success (e.g., progressivi, CU logic, Uniemens structure, year-to-date handling, etc.)—even if you’re not running monthly payroll as your primary job. Ability to manage multiple stakeholders, priorities, and timelines in a remote environment. Clear, structured communication: you can translate complexity into actionable steps for customers and internal teams. Writes and speaks fluent English and Italian It's not required to have experience working remotely, but considered a plus Experience with mid-year transitions, parallel payroll, and complex onboarding scenarios. Strong working knowledge of high-volume CCNLs (e.g., Commerce, Metalmeccanico). Experience in tech or high-growth environments; comfort collaborating with Product/Engineering.
