As a Senior Payroll Specialist with extensive experience in payroll and HR administration, I have developed a deep expertise in managing payroll processes and ensuring compliance with various labor laws. My career began at Schneider Electric, where I started as a Junior HR Administrator with French, handling data updates in HR systems and providing support to employees. I then advanced to an HR Administrator, responsible for preparing employee contracts and various HR reports. At Sage, I participated in the transition of HR services from France to Poland, processed inquiries and requests, and supported payroll processes while gaining knowledge about French labor law. In my roles at American Express, I first served as a Payroll and Administration Specialist before advancing to the position of EMEA Payroll & Administration Coordinator. I then led the Payroll and HR Administration Team for France, where I ensured payroll processing compliance and provided high-level HR services. Currently, at Syneos Health, I act as a source of French payroll knowledge, maintaining payroll records, analyzing payroll-related information, and ensuring accurate payroll delivery. I also prepare statutory declarations and handle special client requests. My academic background includes a Master's degree from the University of Warsaw and postgraduate studies in Finance and Accounting from the SGH Warsaw School of Economics.Tech Stack
