The opportunity
We are looking for an organised and detail-focused Payroll & HR Coordinator to join our team on a part-time basis.
Initially, the role will focus primarily on delivering an accurate and timely payroll service for approximately 350 employees.

- Check payroll inputs, including starters, leavers, contractual changes, absence, overtime and other adjustments
- Respond to payroll queries professionally and promptly
- Liaise with managers and employees to obtain accurate information within payroll deadlines
- Complete payroll checks and reconciliations
- Support statutory payroll processes and reporting
- Maintain accurate information across Sage Payroll and Cezanne HR
