This engagement supports a critical payroll stabilization effort focused on correcting payroll, tax, and compliance issues tied to EIN transitions and ADP configuration.
- As an AccruePartners consultant, you’ll be supported by a delivery-focused team experienced in deploying practitioners into high-risk transformation moments. This engagement provides the opportunity to stabilize critical payroll operations, reduce compliance exposure, and help establish a clean foundation for a newly formed organization.
- Partner closely with internal Payroll, HR, Legal, Finance, and ADP resources to assess current payroll configurations, identify gaps, and support remediation efforts to ensure accurate payroll processing and regulatory compliance.
WHY THIS ROLE IS IMPORTANT

- EIN misalignment between legacy and newly formed legal entities

- Increased risk of tax penalties, rejected filings, and reporting inaccuracies

- Identify root causes of payroll, tax, and compliance issues tied to entity transitions
- Partner with internal Payroll leadership and ADP to support corrective actions and remediation efforts
- Assist with re-registration of federal, state, and local tax jurisdictions under the correct EIN
- Support reconciliation of payroll filings, deposits, and historical wage data
- Ensure garnishments, levies, and statutory deductions are properly re-established
- Document findings, risks, and recommendations to support ongoing payroll governance

- Prior experience supporting payroll through:
- Legal entity changes
- New EIN implementations
