Payroll Administrator

Leeds

Permanent full time

Salary: up to £26,310 depending on experience + flexible benefits

Summary

Are you looking to develop a specialist career in payroll? Whether you currently work in HR, payroll, finance or a general administrative role, this is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience while studying towards a recognised payroll qualification.

As a Payroll Administrator, you'll join a supportive Payroll team and learn how to deliver an accurate and efficient payroll service. You'll receive structured training, dedicated study time and mentoring from experienced payroll professionals while developing your knowledge of payroll legislation, systems and processes.

What you'll be doing

You'll support the day-to-day administration of payroll, including processing employee information, maintaining accurate records, assisting with payroll queries and helping ensure payroll activities are completed accurately and on time.

As your knowledge develops, you'll gain exposure to payroll legislation, statutory payments, HMRC processes and payroll reporting, building the skills needed for a successful long-term career in payroll.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
