Payroll Administrator Cover Letter Sample

Dear Hiring Manager,

I’m excited to send you my resume for the position of Payroll Administrator at your company. I’m sure I can make a big difference on your team because I’ve been in charge of payroll operations for big companies for 5 years.

I know how to use payroll software, accounting software, and spreadsheet programs to manage payroll, figure out wages, taxes, and deductions, and print paychecks. I am also good at keeping accurate records of my employees and answering their questions about payroll and benefits.

At ABC Corporation, I oversaw the payroll system for more than 500 employees and worked with HR and other departments to make sure employee information was correct and up to date. I also prepared and submitted tax forms and other required documentation accurately and on time, and generated and analyzed payroll reports to identify discrepancies and ensure accuracy.

Because I have a Bachelor’s degree in accounting and know how to use payroll software, accounting software, and spreadsheet programs, I am sure I can do well in this job. I am a quick learner with strong communication and interpersonal skills who is eager to collaborate with your team to achieve organizational objectives.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to discussing my qualifications further in an interview.
