Payroll Isn't Just About Getting People Paid.

It's about accuracy. Compliance. Trust.

It's about making sure employees are paid correctly, on time, every time.

If you're the type of payroll professional who enjoys taking ownership, improving processes, analysing data and becoming the go-to expert within a business, this could be exactly what you're looking for.

We're supporting an established business in the Stirling area as they look to appoint an experienced Payroll Manager to take ownership of their payroll function.

This is an opportunity to step into a role where you'll have real autonomy, visibility across the business and the chance to influence how payroll systems and processes evolve in the future.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Managing the end-to-end payroll process across the UK business
  • Processing and validating payroll data including starters, leavers, contractual changes, overtime, bonuses and statutory payments
  • Managing payroll deadlines and ensuring all submissions are completed accurately and on time
  • Ensuring compliance with UK payroll legislation, HMRC requirements and auto-enrolment obligations
  • Completing RTI submissions, including FPS and EPS reporting
  • Supporting month-end payroll activities
  • Producing payroll reports and analysis for finance and senior leadership teams
  • Acting as the primary point of contact for payroll-related queries across the business
  • Supporting continuous improvement initiatives across payroll systems, controls and procedures
  • Developing reporting and processes relating to time and attendance systems
  • Training and supporting managers and system users on payroll-related activities

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.
