Job description

Payroll and Benefits Officer (Part time - 24 hours per week)

Staffordshire £30-32 K (Pro Rata) Permanent

We re looking for an experienced payroll professional to take ownership of a varied, standalone payroll position based in Staffordshire.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys getting stuck into the detail. The payroll currently involves a mixture of manual processes, so you ll need to be comfortable working this way whilst also supporting the business as it continues to move towards more digital ways of working.

The role will include:

Managing payroll for up to 250 employees
Processing a mixture of lunar and monthly payrolls
Managing different pay types including hourly, minimum wage and salaried employees
Supporting a separate pensioner payroll linked to a final salary scheme
Processing payroll using Sage 50 Payroll
Managing pensions, including auto-enrolment and annual pension audits
Working with pension providers including Aviva and The People s Pension
Managing timesheets and ensuring payroll is processed accurately and on time
Helping to improve and digitalise existing payroll processes

What we re looking for!

You ll be an experienced payroll professional who is confident managing a busy and occasionally complex payroll.
Previous experience using Sage 50 Payroll is important, and exposure to Sage HR would be beneficial.
You ll also be comfortable working with manual processes, rather than expecting everything to be fully automated from day one.
Experience of payrolls involving different rates, pay structures or employee groups would be particularly useful.

The role is part time, and we are looking for the successful candidate to work Mondays and Thursdays in office, with some flexibility around the working pattern. If you re looking for a part-time payroll role where you can genuinely take ownership and help shape how the function works moving forward, this could be a really good fit.
