We are looking for a detail-driven Payroll Administrator who loves numbers and enjoys keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes. In this role, you will take charge of a weekly payroll for a variety of employees and contractors, making sure everyone is paid accurately and on time, every time.

What You'll Do

  • Stay compliant: Keep records in line with HMRC requirements and UK payroll legislation.
  • Be the go-to person: Answer pay queries, onboard new starters and collaborate with managers across different teams.
  • Report & analyse: Create clear payroll reports, track costs and support audits or year-end tasks.

What We're Looking For

  • Solid experience running UK payrolls and a strong grasp of PAYE, NI and pensions.
  • Confidence using payroll or rostering software (any system is fine as training is provided!).
  • A sharp eye for detail, excellent communication skills and the ability to meet weekly deadlines in a busy environment.
  • Bonus points for experience with freelance or contract staff.

Why Join Us

  • Competitive salary plus 33 days' annual leave.
  • A permanent role in a friendly, collaborative team.
  • Opportunities to develop your payroll expertise in a dynamic workplace.
