  * 

    Checking and reconciling payroll reports before final sign-off

  * 

    Dealing with payroll queries from employees and managers

  * 

    Maintaining up-to-date and accurate payroll records

What we’re looking for

    Recent experience in an in-house Payroll Officer / Payroll Administrator role

  * 

    Confident running end-to-end, high-volume payroll (ideally 300+ employees)

  * 

    Strong understanding of UK payroll legislation (PAYE, NI, pensions, SSP, SMP etc.)

  * 

    Able to work in the office 5 days a week – this role is fully office-based

  * 

    Available to start immediately or on very short notice

  * 

    Organised, accurate and comfortable working to strict payroll deadlines

What’s on offer

    Temporary payroll role with an immediate start

  * 

    Office-based, full-time hours (Monday–Friday)

  * 

    Competitive hourly rate, paid weekly

  * 

    Chance to take full ownership of a busy in-house payroll and add real value
