Hays Electrical Services is one of the most trusted electrical contractors in the country — 19 years, multi-state operations, and a reputation built on safety, precision, and delivering for our clients. Now we're looking for a Certified Payroll Compliance & Reporting Manager who doesn't just process certified payroll — they own it end to end.

The Role
This is a high-impact position responsible for managing certified payroll compliance across all prevailing wage and government-funded projects company-wide. You'll be the subject matter expert — the person everyone turns to when it comes to Davis-Bacon, DOL Form WH-347, LCP Tracker, and prevailing wage worker classification. You'll also drive the process improvements and automation that make the department leaner and more scalable.

What You'll Do

• Prepare, certify, and submit weekly certified payroll reports (WH-347) to federal, state, and local agencies — on time, every time.

• Manage LCP Tracker setups, certifications, and compliance flags across all projects.

• Ensure accurate prevailing wage classification, fringe benefit calculations, and apprenticeship ratio compliance.

• Collect and audit subcontractor certified payroll submissions; enforce compliance as the prime contractor's representative.

• Lead audit defense: own records retention, DOL investigation response, and internal compliance audits.

• Build and maintain SOPs, workflows, and controls that drive accuracy and efficiency at scale.

• Identify automation opportunities and execute a staffing optimization plan without sacrificing compliance.

What You Bring

• 5+ years of payroll experience in construction or electrical contracting; 3+ years in certified payroll.

• Prior experience in a multi-state construction organization (1,000+ employees).

• Hands-on LCP Tracker experience and deep knowledge of Davis-Bacon Act / DBRA requirements.

• Track record submitting Form WH-347 and managing subcontractor certified payroll compliance.

• Proficiency in modern payroll platforms (Workday, Dayforce, ADP) and construction ERPs (Vista/Trimble or comparable).

• Certified Payroll Professional (CPP) or equivalent preferred.
