Kinetic is Australia and New Zealand’s largest bus operator, moving millions of passengers every year through safe, reliable and customer-focused transport services. With a workforce of more than 4,000 employees across 19 legal entities, we are committed to delivering modern, efficient and compliant people systems that support our teams and the communities we serve.
We're looking for an experienced Senior Payroll Officer to join our payroll team during an exciting period of transformation.
Supporting our Head of Payroll and Payroll Project Implementation Lead, you'll play a key role in ensuring our payroll expertise is embedded throughout the implementation of a new payroll solution. Drawing on your strong operational payroll knowledge, you'll help validate processes, support testing activities, provide award and compliance expertise, and contribute to the successful delivery of the project.
This role is ideal for an experienced Payroll Officer or Senior Payroll Officer who enjoys working in complex payroll environments and is keen to be involved in a major payroll transformation. Previous implementation experience is welcome but not essential – we're equally interested in payroll professionals with strong technical payroll knowledge, a continuous improvement mindset, and a willingness to learn.

Established over 45 years ago, Kinetic has grown to become the largest bus operator in Australia and New Zealand, and a global, multi-modal transport network with operations that span across the UK, Europe and Singapore.
We began in 1978 with Melbourne’s Skybus – a cost efficient, reliable airport transfer service. Today, we manage a global network of bus and rail services, with a team of 36,000 dedicated people and 11,000 buses seamlessly moving over 100 million passengers every year.
We’re the trusted operator of urban, regional, school and charter bus services across Australia and New Zealand. We operate 40 per cent of buses in Queensland, a third of Melbourne’s bus network, and almost half of bus services in Tasmania. In NZ, we’re proud to partner with councils in Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington and Tauranga.
Our expertise spans continents, operating in five countries across Europe. In the UK, we run the Go Ahead network – alongside joint venture partner Globalvia – which includes the Govia Thameslink rail link, the largest and most complex rail system in the country.
We believe in improving the communities in which we live and operate, and making a positive impact on people’s lives.
We’re removing the diesel buses that emit millions of tons of greenhouse gases every year. We’re putting women up front. And we believe in LGBTQI+ inclusion and the freedom to be your true self.
Governments, airports, businesses, schools and councils count on us every day. You too, can count on Kinetic.
