A highly regarded and growing professional services business is seeking an experienced Payroll Services Executive to join its established payroll team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong background in payroll who enjoys taking ownership of client relationships, delivering a high standard of service and contributing to the continued development of a growing payroll function.

The business is experiencing significant growth and continues to invest in its people, systems and services. As part of a wider professional services group, it offers the stability of an established organisation alongside the opportunities that come with continued expansion.

The Role

Working closely with the Payroll Services Partner and wider payroll team, you will be responsible for the effective management and delivery of payroll services to a varied portfolio of clients.

You will act as a key point of contact for clients, providing guidance, resolving queries and ensuring consistently high standards of accuracy, compliance and service.

Alongside day-to-day payroll responsibilities, you will contribute to improvements in systems, processes and ways of working, helping the department continue to deliver an efficient and responsive service as the business grows.
