Great feedback. I agree with the comments about being an analyst or having strong analytical skills. Post-COVID, and in the middle of this poor economic period, payroll pros are being called upon increasingly to identify the threat to our businesses that those factors play on our staff. And to help create strategic plans to offset them. Analytical/strategic skills are now more important for this group than just mathematical prowess.
Among others keys skills, I believe a payroll professional must be thorough / very detailed oriented, excellent knowledge of legislation with the willingness and ability to keep up with changing legislation, tech savvy and willingness to learn, problem solving skills and must be reliable.
This is the ultimate skillset 👏 Thank you so much for sharing it, Toyosi!
Along with the skills mentioned above, I believe payroll professionals should also possess customer service skills.
This is so true! Thanks for sharing it, Harman!
