The Position

We're currently looking for a Payroll Specialist who will be responsible for coordinating the full UK payroll process and coordinating international payrolls, ensuring accuracy, compliance and timely delivery. The role works closely with HR, Finance and external payroll providers while maintaining strong controls and supporting audits, year-end activities and continuous process improvements.

Responsibilities

  • Own the full monthly UK payroll cycle, from payroll inputs and calculations through to payments, payslips and statutory reporting.
  • Ensure compliance with UK PAYE, National Insurance, RTI, statutory payments and workplace pension requirements.
  • Coordinate outsourced payrolls across four overseas countries, ensuring accurate inputs, timely approvals, funding and local compliance.
  • Perform payroll reconciliations and variance analysis to support Finance.
  • Work closely with HR to process starters, leavers, salary changes, contractual amendments, absences and benefits.
  • Maintain robust payroll controls, audit trails, documentation and approval records across UK and international payrolls.
  • Support payroll year-end activities, audits, system changes and payroll provider management.
  • Identify and implement opportunities for process improvement and increased payroll efficiency.

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.
