As a Payroll Tax Specialist at ARCO, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the accuracy and compliance of payroll tax processes. Your responsibilities will include reconciling, transmitting, and validating employee and employer tax withholding on a weekly, biweekly, quarterly, and annual basis. You will be responsible for identifying, registering, and administering new payroll taxes as work locations are created, as well as managing current tax accounts and making necessary updates or closures when locations are closed or moved. Your attention to detail will be essential as you make calendar year balance adjustments and W2-C changes when warranted, ensuring that all amended filings are completed accurately and on time. In addition to these core responsibilities, you will periodically audit employee tax records to ensure accurate taxation and proactively minimize W2-C issuance. You will also review ongoing tax updates and testing to ensure proper taxation changes are implemented. Responding to tax authority notices and correspondence in a timely manner will be part of your duties, as will reviewing new hires, transfers, and address changes to ensure accurate tax setup in employee payroll profiles. You will assist with the quarterly reconciliation of W-2 files and balance and review US and Canada tax table totals within a limited timeframe. Thorough examination of W2 and T4 information before printing and distribution will also be a key part of your role.
