Payroll Administrator

Our Client

Our client, a successful accountancy practice, is seeking a Payroll Administration to join the team. This firm is continuing to enjoy steady growth and as such, another payroll professional is required to satisfy the demand.

Position Details

Ideally, the Payroll Administration will be full-time, however, the firm is open to this being a part-time position, at a salary on a pro rata basis of that advertised.

About the Firm

The firm provides professional accountancy services to a range of clients, from SMEs to larger international companies, across a range of sectors.

This practice is a fantastic employer and will offer the Payroll Administrator a competitive salary with excellent benefits, a friendly and supportive working environment, and free parking.

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.
