Position Overview

Payroll & HR Specialist
Full Time and Permanent
Weston-super-Mare
£45-50,000 per annum plus discretionary bonus
Let's be honest: Most payroll jobs promise variety but end up being little more than processing pay runs and dealing with the occasional query.This one is different.........I'm recruiting a newly created position for an experienced payroll professional who enjoys ownership, thrives on accuracy and genuinely wants to influence how things are done.You'll take the lead on payroll operations across multiple business entities, each with their own payroll schedules, employee populations and complexities. From payroll validation and reconciliations to maternity calculations, sickness calculations, reporting and process improvements, you'll be the person ensuring everything lands exactly as it should.

Right first time. Every time.

If you're the sort of payroll professional who spots the £17 discrepancy before anyone else notices, we'll probably get along...
