Interim Payroll & Benefits Specialist
Southampton | 3 days per week | Immediate Start
A growing PE-backed FinTech is seeking a hands-on Interim Payroll & Benefits Specialist to take ownership of a complex payroll environment and bring structure, controls, and documentation to a critical function.
This is not a payroll leadership role where you'll oversee a team. We're looking for someone who has personally processed payrolls themselves and is comfortable rolling up their sleeves from day one.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own end-to-end UK payroll processing.
- Coordinate outsourced payrolls across Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, India, and the US.
- Manage benefits and share scheme administration.
- Build payroll standard operating procedures and process documentation from scratch.
- Support payroll controls, reconciliations, and stakeholder queries.
- Work closely with Finance and People teams to improve payroll processes and governance.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What We're Looking For:
- Proven experience running complex UK payrolls end-to-end.
- Experience coordinating international payroll providers.
- Exposure to Infinet Cloud, Deel, NetSuite, and/or HiBob.
- CIPP qualified or equivalent practical payroll expertise.
- Strong benefits administration experience.
- Ability to document processes while delivering operational workload.
- Calm, methodical approach with the ability to pick up a handover quickly and get productive at pace.

Location Requirements:
For the first five weeks, you'll be required in Southampton three days per week, working closely alongside the payroll and finance teams.
This is an opportunity to join a business that needs an experienced practitioner who can bring order, process, and expertise to a fast-moving environment while delivering the day-to-day payroll operation.
