It’s an exciting and varied role working alongside the Payroll team within wider Finance department. You will be one of the main points of contact for any payroll related queries, ensuring a high level of service is provided to colleagues at all times and any issues are resolved in a timely manner. You will be working as a team to ensure all colleagues across Lakeland are paid accurately and on time, completing hour checks each week along with distributing reports across the business.

You will have an understanding of the payroll process from start to finish - from applying tax code changes and working out manual adjustments through to the final submission of RTI (Real Time Information) to HMRC.

Alongside processing of the payroll, you will be completing calculations for our new starters, colleagues who are leaving and change of contracts midway through the year, including holiday calculations.

You will also assist with completing year end duties as and when required.

• You’ll be comfortable with IT (payroll and time/attendance systems), have good excel skills, numeracy with a high degree of accuracy and a great attention to detail to help identify any issues or discrepancies within the payroll whilst maintaining confidentiality at all times.
• You will have worked within a payroll setting before and understand the payroll process end to end whilst also having an understanding of other elements that make up payroll such as auto enrolment/attachment of earnings/sick pay.
• You will be confident in taking ownership of issues if they arise and ensure they are resolved in a timely manner. Holding a payroll qualification would be advantageous.
• You will be up to date with payroll legislation and have worked in a payroll setting for at least two years.

From selling plastic bags for home freezing from the Rayner family garage in Windermere, to over 4000 kitchen and home products today, Lakeland has grown to the extent that we now send out thousands of parcels a day from our Kendal despatch centre, and we have stores nationwide, stretching from Aberdeen to Exeter, with more in the pipeline

There are many benefits to being part of the Lakeland team. Other than being part of a huge and happy working family, our colleagues are rewarded with a competitive salary, a group personal pension plan.
