then you've missed the point.
from the perspective of the senior stakeholders who decides whether ...
This is dependent on individual circumstances, as not all the decision makers are unfamiliar with payroll process. In my company, the HR is always leading the charge when implementing the outsourcing process, as payroll is a part of HR function, and not directly reporting to Finance . Of course you may have companies whose payroll is relatively routine and the benefits of cost cutting outweigh the potential risk of outsourcing.
There could be competition between AA and junior level payroll officer because if AAs have basic knowledge and exposure on payroll and therefore are able to replace junior payroll officers. Obviously, employing an multi-tasking AA is more cost-saving as employers no longer need to hire additional staff in this case. This is why payroll exposure is often included in the job description for AA because SMEs usually require AA to process payroll or act as a liaison officer with the external payroll companies.
On senior level, however, it is rare to see a payroll officer and an Accountant compete with each other because Accountant is mainly responsible for reconciliation, journal, consolidation, financial analysis and segment reporting while payroll officers specialise in interpretating awards, leave entitlements, FBT & Payroll Tax regulations, or liaising with workcover agencies on salary declaration.
I am not saying (actually I never said that) choosing payroll will “opens more doors down the road” , but it does provide graduates an alternative path to the professional workforce, and definitely is not a dying breed.
