Join us as our new Offshore Payroll Specialist!
DOF is looking for a Marine Offshore Payroll Specialist with a strong ability to navigate in a changing environment whilst maintaining high quality service delivery.

As Offshore Payroll Specialist, you will be responsible for running the monthly input for the International marine payroll run end to end, including working together with all our stakeholders to ensure a correct payroll.

Daily, we expect you to be able to navigate many tasks with multiple stakeholders whilst still being able to keep the processes flowing.
Join us for the opportunity to work in a truly international environment in the dynamic and ever-changing offshore shipping industry. Navigating payroll in this complex environment can be a challenge, but also an area which brings high value to our seafarers.
When joining DOF, you work in a culturally diverse environment, where new ideas and different ways of doing things are welcome. We are proud of our diversity and see it as a genuine source of strength.
