Interim Payroll Transformation Manager / Consultant | £600-£700/day | Remote

I'm supporting a confidential client on a genuinely exciting payroll transformation assignment.

This is an opportunity to help build a transformation capability from the ground up, shaping ways of working, governance, methodologies, and standards while leading meaningful change across a multi-site European environment.

What you'll be doing:

  • Driving payroll transformation and process improvement initiatives
  • Mapping and redesigning end-to-end payroll processes
  • Creating SOPs, documentation, governance frameworks, and operating standards
  • Engaging stakeholders across Payroll, HR, and Finance
  • Supporting the delivery and implementation of key change projects
  • Helping stabilise and improve existing payroll operations

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.
