Ensuring payroll processes comply with HMRC requirements, statutory legislation, pension regulations and data protection standards.
Maintaining accurate employee information within payroll systems.
Identifying opportunities to improve payroll processes, controls and ways of working.

You’ll bring:
Previous experience in payroll administration, with a good understanding of PAYE, National Insurance, statutory payments and pensions.
Experience using payroll software, alongside strong Microsoft Excel skills.
Excellent attention to detail, numerical accuracy and analytical skills.
Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines.
A proactive approach to problem-solving and resolving queries.
Great communication and customer service skills, with the confidence to support colleagues at all levels.
A collaborative approach, with the ability to work effectively as part of a team.
A commitment to maintaining confidentiality and handling sensitive information with care.
