Payroll Analyst

We’re not a typical construction company.

We’re a Hawaiʻi-grown force building infrastructure that actually matters — across civil, concrete, energy, drilling, and beyond. And we do it with intention.

Our culture isn’t corporate fluff, it’s how we operate every day:

• Lead with Heart – Respect isn’t optional. People come first.
• Strength in Unity – No silos. No egos. One team.
• Alpha Mentality – We take ownership, push limits, and execute.

You won’t just process payroll here, you’ll be part of a company scaling fast and doing meaningful work across the islands.

This role is about accuracy, accountability, and elevation.

• Execute timely, accurate payroll processing across all employees
• Track hours, deductions, adjustments, and changes with zero margin for error

• Analyze payroll data for trends, discrepancies, and optimization opportunities
• Build reports that actually help leadership make decisions (not just check boxes)

• Ensure payroll aligns with federal, Hawaiʻi state, and local labor laws
• Stay ahead of regulatory changes — not behind them

• Maintain and improve payroll systems (ADP, QuickBooks, NetSuite, etc.)
• Partner with HR + IT to streamline workflows and eliminate inefficiencies

• Manage certified payroll reporting for projects
• Conduct audits, reconcile accounts, and resolve issues before they escalate

• Handle employee payroll questions with clarity, urgency, and professionalism
• Protect confidentiality like it’s non-negotiable (because it is)

• Identify breakdowns → fix them
• Recommend smarter, faster, more accurate ways to operate

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or related field (preferred)
• 3+ years of payroll experience (construction industry = strong advantage)

• Deep understanding of payroll laws, taxes, and compliance
• Experience with payroll systems (ADP, QuickBooks, NetSuite, etc.)
• Advanced Excel skills (you don’t just use spreadsheets — you command them)

• Detail-obsessed (the good kind)
• Highly organized in fast-paced environments
• Discreet, trustworthy, and professional with sensitive data
• Problem-solver who doesn’t wait to be told

• You Lead with Heart — even when it’s busy
• You believe in Strength in Unity — no lone wolves
• You bring an Alpha Mentality — ownership, grit, and pride in your work

Because here, payroll isn’t buried in the back office — it’s mission-critical.

You’ll be part of a company that:

• Is scaling fast across multiple industries
• Invests in people, not just projects
• Actually lives its values — on job sites and in the office
