Yusuf Sampson
@yusufsampson
HR and Payroll Administrator focused on compliant, accurate payroll and HR records.
What I'm looking for
I’m an HR and Payroll Administrator with hands-on experience in payroll processing, HR administration, and compliance in a fast-paced environment. I’m skilled in Sage 300 people, SAP, PaperTrail, ESS, and Microsoft Office, and I focus on accuracy, confidentiality, and clean documentation.
In my current role, I produce monthly HR and payroll reports and submissions, manage month-end payment schedules, and process HR/payroll documentation through PaperTrail for digital approvals and records management. I support employees via ESS for leave, payslips, and personal information updates, and I handle onboarding/offboarding documentation including termination emails with supporting documentation and capturing new recruits on Sage 300 people.
I’ve also handled statutory submissions by confirming new appointments and terminations monthly from various divisions, capturing invoices on SAP for payment approvals, and sending UIF declaration schedules. Previously, as an HR Intern, I assisted with recruitment processes, scheduling interviews, maintaining employee records for compliance, and monitoring attendance and leave to support payroll accuracy, while earlier experience as an Administrative assistant in a government-regulated setting strengthened my event coordination, record keeping, and report preparation.
