Project Coordinator - Payroll Implementation
Location: Downtown Chicago (Hybrid)
Contract through end of year | $40-50/hr


Our client, a leading building materials manufacturer headquartered in downtown Chicago, is seeking a detail-oriented Project Coordinator to support the ongoing Payroll NextGen Project. This high-visibility initiative involves replacing Oracle Payroll and Kronos Workforce Management with ADP Workforce and ADP Workforce Time & Attendance. The project is already underway, and we're looking for someone who can step in to help ensure effective coordination and execution.


Key Responsibilities:



  • Support the Project Manager in day-to-day operations of the Payroll NextGen implementation.

  • Assist in tracking project milestones, timelines, and deliverables to ensure the project stays on track.

  • Coordinate meetings, prepare agendas and meeting notes, and follow up on action items with stakeholders.

  • Help manage project documentation, including status reports, risk logs, and project plans.

  • Facilitate communication between cross-functional teams, including business and technical stakeholders.

  • Contribute to issue tracking, resolution documentation, and change management activities.


Requirements:



  • 2-4 years of experience in a project coordination or similar support role within software or payroll system implementations.

  • Exposure to enterprise systems like ADP, Oracle Payroll, or Kronos is preferred.

  • Familiarity with project management methodologies (Agile and Waterfall).

  • Excellent organizational and communication skills.

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and follow through on tasks with minimal oversight.

  • Experience working in hybrid or matrixed team environments.


This is a contract role expected to run through the end of the year. Candidates must be comfortable working in a hybrid model (onsite in downtown Chicago part of the week). If you are highly organized, collaborative, and ready to contribute to a major enterprise initiative, apply today!
