Payroll Capability

• Design and deliver technical learning for Outsourced Payroll, Payroll Support and Payroll Onboarding colleagues, including new starter, refresher and legislative update training.
• Coach new payroll colleagues through their initial development, raising concerns constructively and early where further development is required.
• Own the payroll competency framework and career pathway, and the payroll training matrix, ensuring colleagues have a clear picture of what good looks like at each level.

Management Development and Apprenticeships

• Design, coordinate and deliver Cintra's Aspiring Managers programme, giving colleagues preparing for their first management role the practical skills and confidence to manage people effectively.
• Own and coordinate Cintra's Apprenticeship Programme, acting as the principal point of contact with providers and working with managers to monitor progress and support completion.

What We’re Looking For

You are genuinely interested in developing people, not as a job function but as something you find rewarding. You bring patience and adaptability to every audience, the coaching instinct to build confidence as well as competence, and the credibility to work effectively with both new starters and experienced payroll professionals. You are also organised enough to hold multiple programmes together without dropping the quality of any of them.

Essential

• Demonstrable experience designing and delivering effective learning programmes across technical, behavioural and management subjects to a range of audiences.
• Strong coaching and mentoring skills, with the ability to build confidence as well as competence and encourage individuals to own their development.
• Sufficient payroll knowledge to credibly support technical payroll learning, including a good working understanding of key payroll legislation, statutory payments, pensions and automatic enrolment.
• Experience delivering management or leadership development, with a good understanding of the core skills line managers need.
• The ability to give honest, constructive feedback early, including where development is not progressing and to receive it in the same spirit.
• Strong planning and organisational skills, managing multiple priorities around operational requirements and peak periods.
• Strong written skills, producing clear guides, exercises and assessments.
• Highly resilient and calm in a pressurised environment.

Desirable

• A recognised L&D, training, coaching or HR qualification such as CIPD or a Level 3 Award in Education and Training.
• A CIPP qualification or other recognised payroll qualification.
• Experience coordinating apprenticeship programmes and managing relationships with external providers.
• Experience designing blended learning and using e-learning authoring tools such as Articulate.
