Job Description
A leading FTSE250 organisation is growing its central People function and is recruiting two experienced Payroll Advisors to support both day to day delivery and wider transformation activity. These roles offer the chance to join a busy, collaborative team where accuracy, service and improvement are at the heart of how payroll operates.
Both hires will take ownership for delivering a smooth and timely payroll service across a large, varied workforce. You’ll manage end to end processing, ensuring every cycle is accurate, compliant and completed on schedule. Your work will involve handling statutory payments, carrying out reconciliation activity, responding to payroll queries from colleagues and managers, and partnering closely with HR and Finance to maintain clear governance and controls. You’ll also play a valuable role in cyclical work such as year end, audit preparation and supporting wider reward processes, helping ensure the business maintains strong consistency and compliance.
The first role focuses on maintaining and enhancing the business as usual payroll operation. You’ll be relied upon to ensure data integrity, identify discrepancies early and resolve issues quickly. You’ll also contribute to ongoing improvements across the function by assessing current processes, highlighting risks, and offering practical suggestions that strengthen accuracy and efficiency. With the organisation continuing to evolve, this role provides the chance to influence how payroll services are shaped for the future and will suit someone who takes pride in delivering a high quality, dependable service.
The second hire will sit at the centre of the organisation’s Workday implementation and requires strong Workday experience. This role blends technical payroll knowledge with systems thinking and project involvement. You’ll work closely with sites to fact find, understand local pain points and identify opportunities to streamline and automate key processes. You’ll collaborate with the Business Analyst and payroll colleagues to document new workflows, create complete Standard Operating Procedures and ensure that changes are accurately reflected within Workday. You’ll also support the delivery of training so the payroll team is confident in updated ways of working. Alongside this, you’ll assist with testing phases, data validation and parallel runs, helping ensure the transition into the new system is smooth, compliant and well controlled.
Together, these roles offer a strong opportunity to contribute to a function that is evolving at pace. Whether your strengths lie in delivering an exceptional end to end payroll service or in supporting the successful rollout of Workday, you’ll play a meaningful role in shaping how payroll operates across this ambitious FTSE250 businessBefore You Apply
