We are seeking an experienced payroll professional with a relevant payroll management qualification such as CIPP or equivalent expertise, supported by ongoing professional development and up-to-date knowledge of legislation and best practice. You will bring over five years of UK payroll experience, including managing large and complex payrolls with multiple pension schemes, alongside a strong understanding of HMRC requirements, PAYE processes, P11D reporting and end-of-year procedures.

Strong interpersonal skills, a collaborative approach, and a commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion are key to succeeding in this role.
