Payroll Trainee

Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust has an exciting opportunity to join the payroll and pension team to begin a career in Payroll and Pensions, at a time when the profile of payroll and pensions is evolving.

The Payroll and Pension teams (based at Sentinel House, Poole and Forston Clinic, Dorchester) provide a full range of pay and pension related services and advice to employees of the Trust and three client organisations. You will work under supervision as part of a busy team to gain knowledge and experience in the delivery of a high-quality payroll and pension service to over 10,000 employees whilst completing your training.

This post is a trainee post within Payroll and Pensions. Upon successful completion of training (within 12-18 months) the post holder will move from a Band 2 Payroll/Pension Trainee post to a Band 3 Payroll/Pensions Administrator.

At Dorset HealthCare we’re on a mission to empower people to make the most of their lives through our outstanding, joined-up healthcare services. We’re a dynamic, forward-looking Trust, running 12 community hospitals, specialist inpatient facilities and a wide range of integrated community and mental health services for a population of almost 800,000 people.

We do things differently here - it’s one of the reasons the CQC rated us ‘outstanding’ in 2019. It’s also why 95% of patients across our services say they have a good or very good experience of our services and 89% of staff feel they can really make a difference. Whether you’re looking to work with us in one of our bustling market towns, vibrant urban locations, thriving seaside spots, or among the rolling hills of Dorset, there are lots of ways you can make a difference in our communities.

Our 7,000-strong workforce is at the heart of what we do and our success is a testament to our brilliant people. We're all about building a workplace for the future, we believe in equal opportunities and we celebrate diversity. We’re an inclusive workplace, where everyone is welcome, everyone can be authentic, and we are all encouraged to be the best version of ourselves.

Working with us you’ll be part of a strong team, challenge yourself, build a career, and teach us what we don’t know. And you’ll be working towards our vision to be better every day through excellence, compassion and expertise in all we do.
