Funny name, serious business

We make eco-friendly products and donate 50% of our profits to provide clean water and help build toilets for the billions of people who lack proper access. So far, we’ve contributed over $18 million AUD (roughly $12.5 million USD) to fund sanitation projects around the globe. Basically, we’re really good at doing good. 

With hubs in Australia, the Philippines, China, the US, UK and Europe, our amazing team of 200+ work to make the biggest possible impact for people and the planet. Over the next couple of years, we’re hoping to increase our annual donation tenfold to get us closer to our dream of everyone in the world having access to clean water and sanitation services.

A bit about the role

This is a 6-month, fixed-term role supporting payroll for our Philippines hub. You’ll work closely with business leaders and our Payroll Lead to check PH payroll invoices, resolve any discrepancies, and collate everything into one clean file ready for review each pay cycle. It’s a finance-side role — think careful admin and attention to detail in Excel or Google Sheets, not managing a payroll system.

If you worked here this past month here are some things you might have been involved in

• Checked payroll invoices for the PH hub with business leaders to confirm hours and amounts were accurate.
• Collated the month’s invoices into a single file ready for the Payroll Lead’s review.
• Chased up a business leader for a missing invoice ahead of the payroll deadline.
• Updated the PH payroll tracker to reflect the latest pay cycle.

Let’s talk about you

You’ve got payroll in your bones (at least 5 years of it)

You’ve spent 5+ years in payroll, ideally on the finance side rather than the HR side, and you know your way around invoices, pay cycles and the occasional discrepancy that needs chasing down.

Excel (or Sheets) is basically your happy place

You don’t need to have used a fancy payroll system before — what you do need is to be genuinely comfortable building and maintaining accurate files in Excel or Google Sheets, because that’s how this role runs.

You’re organised, detail-obsessed and easy to work with

You like things tidy, you catch the small errors before they become big ones, and you’re comfortable chasing business leaders for the odd missing invoice without losing your cool.

You give a crap

Do you want your work to make the world a better place? Do you want to work with other people who feel the same way? What a coincidence — us too!

Why should you work with us?

First off, as a certified B Corp™, we work to make a difference every day while maintaining the highest standards of social and environmental impact. With our most recent score of 125.5 we’re in very good company with other exceptional B Corps around the world.

We also believe that helping to make the world a better place should be rewarded accordingly – that’s why we offer competitive, market informed salaries, meaningful support towards healthcare for our team around the world,generous paid leave, tailored learning and development opportunities, and free toilet paper (yes, you read that right).

Our engagement surveys (thanks Culture Amp!) tell us that our team is really proud (95%) to work for Who Gives A Crap and, well, we couldn’t be more proud of that.

Have you made it this far?

If you’re still reading, we think there’s a strong chance you might be our kind of person. Here’s the thing, though — research suggests that 60% of women and underrepresented folks might have already talked themselves out of applying. Even if you don’t check every box above, we want to encourage you to introduce yourself. We believe a diversity of perspectives and experiences makes a team stronger — and the stronger our team, the closer we are to delivering toilets and clean water for all.
