Key Responsibilities
Samsara is looking for an International Payroll Manager to join our Finance organisation. In this role, you will own end-to-end payroll operations across our Asia and Europe regions, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and timely delivery for our growing international employee population. You will partner closely with HR, Finance, and Legal to manage statutory requirements, vendor relationships, and cross-border payroll complexities while driving process improvements and scalability as Samsara continues to expand globally.
This role can be office-based in our London office or fully remote within the UK.
Review and validate payroll workbooks prepared by payroll analysts, ensuring payrolls are processed in compliance with local regulations and internal policies — while continuously leveraging AI tools to drive efficiency and optimization.
Serve as the subject matter expert on legislative changes across all jurisdictions, providing timely guidance to the business and supporting expansion into new territories.
Act as a cross-functional partner across the organization, collaborating with Benefits on new program implementations, HR Operations on process improvements, Equity on stock-based compensation matters, Treasury on payment processing, and Controllership on journal entries and statutory audits.
Own the relationship with our payroll vendor, CloudPay, actively monitoring performance and influencing outcomes to ensure service excellence and continuous improvement.
Hire, develop and lead an inclusive, engaged, and high performing team.
Requirements
10–15 years of multinational payroll experience, with deep expertise across Asia and Europe jurisdictions.
At least 2 years of people management experience, with a proven ability to lead, develop, and mentor a payroll team.
Prior experience at a publicly traded company, with working knowledge of equity/stock-based compensation, SOX compliance, USGAAP, and statutory audit processes.
Experience with CloudPay and Workday integrations, with the ability to leverage technology to drive payroll efficiency and accuracy.
Prior experience in a high-growth technology company, with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, scaling environment.
Benefits & Perks
At Samsara, we build for the people who keep the global economy moving. We want owners, not passengers, which is why our rewards are designed to fuel high-impact builders. Our compensation program delivers above-market total compensation through a combination of base salary, performance-based bonus/variable pay, and equity (for eligible roles) in a high-growth public company. We meaningfully differentiate pay for our top performers, who have the opportunity to earn above-market compensation that can outpace the broader market over time.
Beyond compensation, we provide the foundations that enable long-term success: a flexible, employee-led remote model, a professional development stipend, comprehensive health and parental leave plans, and more. If you’re ready to build for the long term and own the outcome, your journey starts here.
