About the Role
As a Payroll Analyst, your role will sit within our Finance Operations & Control team, reporting to the Payroll Manager, and working alongside a core payroll team.
This role is a key contributor in supporting the accurate and timely processing of payroll and benefit payments, managing payroll records, and maintaining compliance with relevant regulations and legislation. This is alongside the identification and implementation of continued efficiencies through KPI analysis, colleague MI, and system/process reviews.
About You
If you have proven experience in running end to end payroll you will excel in this role.
You will have a background working in payroll with knowledge of payroll legislation, regulation, tax compliance and absence. With excellent attention to detail and the ability to calculate and analyse data.
You will be a proficient communicator whether this is over the phone, face to face or in writing. Your relationship building and influencing skills will also play a key role in your ongoing success in identifying and implementing change through business stakeholder engagement.
The role is fluid in nature; however, there are key cycle deadlines to deliver to, so you must have an organised approach, have the ability to prioritise requests, produce accurate end output, with an ability to adapt quickly to change.
