Full-Time | Permanent | Office-Based

If you're an experienced Payroll Manager who enjoys taking ownership, improving processes and ensuring every payroll is delivered accurately and compliantly, this could be exactly the opportunity you've been looking for.

Our client is a successful, financially secure organisation with a substantial UK workforce and an outstanding reputation for investing in its people.

As Payroll Manager, you'll become the subject matter expert for payroll across the business, working closely with Finance and operational leaders to ensure payroll is delivered accurately, efficiently and in full compliance with current legislation.

This isn't simply about processing payroll. It's about taking ownership of an essential business function, strengthening controls, driving continuous improvement and making a genuine impact within a growing organisation.

The Role

Reporting directly to the Finance Director, you'll oversee the complete payroll function for a large, multi-site workforce made up of both salaried and hourly paid employees.

You'll ensure payroll is delivered accurately and on time, manage statutory compliance, oversee pension administration and payroll reporting, while acting as the senior point of contact for all payroll-related matters.

You'll also play an important role in reviewing processes, identifying improvements and ensuring payroll systems and controls continue to evolve alongside the business.

Key Responsibilities

You'll be responsible for:

Managing the end-to-end payroll function from input through to final approval.
Delivering accurate payrolls for a large, multi-site workforce.
Managing statutory payments including SSP, SMP, SPP and payroll compliance.
Administering workplace pensions and payroll deductions.
Preparing payroll reports, reconciliations and banking files.
Submitting RTI returns and ensuring full HMRC compliance.
Processing starters, leavers and contractual payroll changes.
Calculating final payments, holiday pay and redundancy payments where required.
Supporting payroll year-end activities and statutory reporting.
Maintaining robust payroll controls, audit trails and data integrity.
Working closely with Finance and operational teams to resolve payroll queries.
Identifying opportunities to improve payroll systems, processes and reporting.

About You

You'll already have experience managing payroll within a busy organisation and be confident taking ownership of the entire payroll process.

We're particularly interested in applicants who have:

Proven end-to-end payroll management experience.
Strong knowledge of UK payroll legislation and HMRC requirements.
Experience processing payroll for a high-volume or multi-site workforce.
Experience using Sage Payroll or similar payroll software.
Excellent Excel skills and strong analytical ability.
Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy.
The ability to work confidently with stakeholders across Finance, HR and Operations.
A proactive mindset with a passion for continuous improvement.

Experience managing payroll year-end processes, pension administration and statutory reporting would be highly desirable.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to join a stable, growing organisation where payroll is recognised as a critical business function.

You'll enjoy:

Working for a financially secure business with ambitious growth plans.
A varied role with genuine ownership and autonomy.
Close collaboration with senior leadership.
A supportive, professional working environment.
Free on-site parking.
Casual dress.
The opportunity to influence payroll processes and drive continuous improvement.
Long-term career security within an established organisation.
