Employment is brilliant at what it does. Useless at everything else your data + AI needs to touch.
Employment Hero runs onboarding and contracts cleanly, but IT provisions by ticket, finance reads headcount from an export, and the employee record stops at Employment Hero's edge. Operational systems never see a start date change.
The integration tool you've already tried probably can't fix it.
SaaS-to-SaaS. Useful, until it isn't.
Connectors for Employment, Slack + a thousand other SaaS apps. Cheap + fast for the easy half of integration. Where they hit a wall:
- Payroll that needs the employee master, contract and status the moment they change
- IT directories that provision access on hire and revoke on termination
- ATS and recruiting that create the employee record without rekeying
- Finance and ERP that need headcount and worker cost tied to the right entity
- Data warehouses + AI agents needing live employee, onboarding and status signals
Payroll, finance, IT, ATS + AI. One platform.
The integration platform built for what other tools can't (or won't) reach - plus an AI data fabric, MCP server + app builder layered on top.
- Employment + every payroll, finance and IT directory system
- Payroll systems, finance, IT directory, ATS + custom-built connectors.
- Files, legacy SQL, FTP + custom-built connectors
- Real-time bidirectional sync, tier-aware + rate-limit-safe
- AI Data Fabric, MCP, automation + custom apps included
Employment + Rayven: AI, automation + tools that reach every system you run.
5 examples of what Rayven customers run on Employment + integrated systems. Built in weeks, not months.
Hire creates the employee record
A candidate marked hired in your ATS creates the Employment Hero employee with the right role, contract and onboarding checklist. Onboarding starts without rekeying.
Start date provisions IT access
A hire creates accounts in Microsoft 365, Okta and Google Workspace with the right role and group. A termination revokes each one the moment HR closes the record, so access never lingers.
Employee master flows clean to payroll
Hires, contract changes and terminations flow to Employment Hero Payroll or any payroll engine with correct role and status. Payroll works from the live employee record.
Headcount + worker cost to finance
Headcount, department and worker-cost changes stream to ERP tied to the right entity. Workforce cost reporting keeps pace with the live org, not a scheduled export.
People data, AI-ready
Every employee, onboarding and status event streams into Rayven's data fabric. AI agents query live attrition risk, headcount forecast and time-off patterns across the workforce.
Integration is the start with Rayven.

What is Employment Hero integration?
Employment Hero integration connects the employee record to the rest of your operation - payroll, finance, IT provisioning, ATS and AI. Rayven delivers Employment Hero integration as part of an AI data fabric, not a single-purpose connector.
How does Rayven connect Employment Hero to other systems?
Rayven uses the Employment Hero REST API for real-time bidirectional sync, coexisting with the KeyPay payroll engine. Employees, onboarding, contracts and status records all flow as first-class integration events. See the Rayven Platform for how integration and data layers fit together.
What systems can Rayven connect Employment Hero to?
Rayven connects Employment Hero to 1,228+ systems including payroll engines, Microsoft 365 and Okta, ERP, ATS, and sibling HR platforms like ELMO Software and Humanforce. Custom integrations are part of done-for-you delivery.
How long does Employment Hero integration take with Rayven?
Most Employment Hero integrations go live in 2-12 weeks. A single Employment-Hero-to-payroll or provisioning flow runs in 2-3 weeks; a full employee-data fabric with automated onboarding and AI-led people analytics runs 6-12 weeks. Choose DIY, done-for-you or hybrid delivery.
Employment Hero bundles HR + KeyPay payroll. Why does Rayven add value on top?
Employment Hero bundles HR and the KeyPay payroll engine, which covers the core path. Rayven adds value where the record has to reach beyond it: real-time provisioning to IT directories, headcount to finance and ERP, people analytics and the agent and portal layers on top. Rayven complements Employment Hero and configures to your local employment environment. Read more in how Rayven works.
What are the most common Employment Hero integration use cases?
Top use cases are hire-to-employee-record, IT provisioning and deprovisioning, employee master to payroll, headcount to finance and AI-led people analytics. See the automations above for specifics.
What are the technical specifics of Employment Hero integration with Rayven?
Rayven uses the Employment Hero REST API via token authentication for real-time bidirectional sync, coexisting with the bundled KeyPay payroll engine and the Swag employee app. Employees, onboarding workflows, contracts, policies and status records are preserved through the integration with field-level mapping into payroll, finance, IT directory, ATS and LMS targets. Onboarding and contract status carries through to the operational tools that plan around a new starter, and the employee master stays consistent between the HR record and KeyPay. IT provisioning fires from hire and termination events. The data model is configurable to your local employment environment across the markets Employment Hero serves. Account-level rate limits are managed through batching, queuing and back-pressure so bulk employee loads never throttle out. Multi-entity estates reconcile to one employee master via Rayven's employee-master layer. Validated against Employment Hero with HR and onboarding enabled.
