Bold Bulls 

USF Payroll Team
The ten members of the Payroll team are responsible for ensuring that every USF employee receives their paycheck in the right account at the right time, every time. Their work requires incredible attention to detail, as they process $50 million of payroll every two weeks. 

 

When the Tampa Bay area was impacted by back-to-back hurricanes Helene and Milton, dedicated team members like Jeff Schueler, assistant director of payroll services, and Quinten Miller, payroll manager, along with the entire Payroll Services team, worked through it all. Even as they navigated their own personal situations during and after those historic storms, they ensured employees were paid on time. Thank you to these trusted employees and their colleagues, whom we’ve come to rely on even without knowing it. They are Bold Bulls.
