Payroll Officer in Northampton

Payroll Officcer (with additional projects!)

£30,000p.a. - £34,000p.a.

Permanent role

Hybrid Working (onsite initially close to Northampton)

Loom Talent are delighted to be partnering with a well-established organisation in Northamptonshire to recruit a Payroll Coordinator on a permanent basis.

Joining a small and busy team, this is a varied role covering both day to day payroll and addition projects. You'll play an important part in making sure payroll data is accurate and ready for processing, whilst also supporting a range of generalist hr activity.

This would suit someone who enjoys working with numbers and data, has a great eye for detail and is confident working independently in a role where there's plenty to get involved in.

The Role

• Support the preparation and checking of monthly payroll data prior to processing.




• Carry out detailed checks across pay, pensions and other payroll information to ensure accuracy.




• Support the administration of a range of employee benefits and reward programmes.




• Work with large data sets and use Excel to analyse, manipulate and reconcile information.




• Respond to payroll and low level HR queries, working with colleagues across the wider business where needed.




• Identify discrepancies and follow these through to resolution.




• Provide general support across the payroll and HR function as required.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone with previous experience in a payroll, HR, reward or similar coordination role. You don't need to be an expert across every area, but you'll need to be comfortable working with data, confident using Excel and have a genuine eye for detail.

Just as importantly, you'll be someone who is naturally inquisitive, uses their initiative and is happy working autonomously. This is a small team, so someone who can get stuck in, ask questions, understand the bigger picture and use their common sense will fit well.
