Full job descriptionPayroll Administrator
Own your client portfolio. Build genuine relationships. Be the payroll expert clients rely on.
We’re working with a well-established and growing business looking for an experienced Payroll Administrator to manage a portfolio of weekly payroll clients from start to finish. This is far more than a processing role. You’ll become the trusted point of contact for your clients, providing expert payroll support and building long-term relationships.
If you enjoy taking ownership, solving problems, and delivering an outstanding client experience, this could be the perfect opportunity.
The role
As Payroll Administrator, you will:
*Manage a portfolio of weekly payroll clients, acting as their primary point of contact.
*Process end-to-end payrolls, including starters, leavers, PAYE, pensions, statutory payments, P45s and P60s.
*Complete HMRC submissions and ensure payrolls are accurate and compliant.
*Support clients with payroll legislation updates, including IR35 and off-payroll working requirements.
*Resolve complex payroll queries confidently and professionally.
*Share knowledge with colleagues and contribute to continuous improvement across payroll processes and systems.
What we’re looking for:
*A minimum of 2 years’ experience processing end-to-end payrolls.
*Weekly payroll experience would be highly advantageous.
*Strong customer service skills with a proactive, ownership-focused approach.
*Good understanding of payroll legislation, PAYE, pensions, VAT and gross margin calculations.
*Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
*Strong attention to detail with the ability to remain calm and organised under pressure.
*CIPP qualification is desirable, but not essential.
What’s in it for you?
*Genuine ownership of your own client portfolio.
*A varied role combining payroll expertise with account management responsibilities.
*Supportive and experienced colleagues who are available when needed.
*Ongoing training and development to keep your payroll knowledge up to date.
*The opportunity to join a growing business where your contribution is genuinely valued.
