Senior HR Controlling Analyst

Payroll errors dont announce themselves. They hide in variances edge cases and system mismatches until they become audit findings compliance risks or employee trust issues. Your job is to find them first.

As SIXTs payroll control function within HR Controlling & Analytics you will own the end-to-end monitoring of payroll data across European markets. You sit outside the Payroll team by design giving you the independence to verify challenge and escalate without conflict of interest. Right now a lot of this work is manual and market-specific. Youll change that: systematically automating recurring checks building a standardised control catalogue and establishing governance processes that scale across Germany France Portugal and beyond.

This is a role with real ownership. You decide what gets checked how it gets checked and when a finding is material enough to escalate. About 75% of your time is hands-on analysis and control work the rest is building the framework that makes the whole system repeatable auditable and robust.
