Payroll Implementation Consultant
Job Title: Pay & Bill Implementation Consultant Location: Fully Remote (UK) – Travel to client sites (London/Birmingham) Contract: Full-time, Permanent
We’re partnering with a high-growth payroll and HR technology provider supporting staffing and recruitment agencies across the UK. The business operates in a fast-paced, start-up environment and is scaling quickly, making this a great opportunity for someone early in their implementation career who already has solid hands-on experience and is keen to grow.
This role focuses on end-to-end payroll software implementations, working closely with clients throughout the full lifecycle — from discovery through to go-live. You’ll be client-facing, tech-savvy, and comfortable juggling multiple projects at once.
Key Responsibilities: Manage multiple payroll implementation projects in parallel, ensuring successful and timely go-lives. Own end-to-end delivery including timelines, risks, and stakeholder communication. Work closely with clients to gather requirements and translate them into system configurations. Support payroll data management, migration, validation, and testing. Configure and adapt the platform to meet client-specific requirements while maintaining scalable solutions. Build reports and dashboards to support client visibility post-implementation. Act as a trusted point of contact for clients, balancing approachability with the confidence to challenge where needed.
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.
