1st and foremost, as the payroll officer you will have the most important task in our entire company – making sure over 350 employees based in UK and Ireland, are paid on time and accurately!

- Processing time and attendance including overtime and timesheets and sick payments
- Manage the Payroll inbox which involves liaising with all employees across Head Office and Residences

- Filing all processed paperwork and ad hoc duties as and when required

- Deal with queries from employees across the business in a professional and timely manner
Here’s what you’ll need;
- Experience within a similar position ideally running payroll for multiple company entities and currencies
- Excellent time management skills, organisation and customer service skills
- Experience with Moorepay or similar will give you the edge
Ideally, we are looking for some one who is available on a part time basis from on or around the 8th to the 20th day of each months (as that’s when our pay period runs)
So, if you feel like you tick these boxes and want to work with the coolest people team on the planet (we write our own ads, can you tell?) then we would love to hear from you.
