You will be working circa 26 hours per week, some of that on a Monday due to weekly payroll, but the remainder of the time can be worked whenever suits you! You will receive a salary of £30,000 - £38,000 (pro rata), depending on experience and there is built in cover from a part‑time Bookkeeper, so you don’t need to worry if you have a bit of time off.

• Being responsible for all payroll instructions and ensuring preparation in time for the weekly and monthly payroll run
• Liaising with HMRC and pension providers regarding submissions and compliance

What we're looking for in a Payroll Administrator?

• Previous experience within a payroll position
• Excellent communication skills with ability to use own initiative and take ownership of workload
• Discrete and professional with the ability to understand the sensitivity of information you will be exposed to
• Approachable, confident, comfortable being challenged and able to stand your ground when required
• An understanding of PAYE, NI, and statutory deductions
• A trusted, self‑starter with a flexible mindset
• An immediate start would be ideal, but if you need a bit of time to make things smooth, that is okay
