SF Recruitment are supporting a well-established business in Chesterfield to recruit an experienced Payroll Assistant on a 6-month fixed-term contract. This opportunity has arisen due to an unexpected change in recruitment plans, and the business is looking for someone who can join quickly and provide valuable support to an established payroll team.

Working as part of a collaborative payroll function, you will primarily focus on the processing side of payroll, ensuring employees are paid accurately and on time. The wider team will support more complex payroll activities, although there will be opportunities to assist with additional responsibilities depending on your experience.

• Maintaining accurate payroll records and employee data.
• Supporting payroll processing to ensure deadlines are met.
• Assisting with payroll queries from employees.

The successful candidate will have previous end-to-end payroll processing experience and be confident stepping into a busy environment with minimal training. Experience using Sage Payroll would be advantageous but is not essential.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys a hands-on payroll role and can quickly become a valued member of a supportive team. The business offers hybrid working, with flexibility around office attendance for the right candidate.
