German term or phrase: Entgeltsachbearbeiter
Hi ProZ-Profis!

I am translating a company's welcome packet for new employees and I am unable to find a clear translation of "Entgeltsachbearbeiter". It's obviously someone in charge of compensating employees but I don't know what the right term for this position would be in English.

Vielen Dank im Voraus fuer eure Hilfe!!

Explanation:
I don't know of any single word for this German term. Several German nouns are often conjoined to form one single word. So a precise single English term for such German terms normally cannot be found. In this particular case, there are three nouns conjoined: Entgelt, Sache and Bearbeiter. Alternative terms could be: remuneration official or official in charge of remuneration/payments..
