Payroll Officer - #2165962

Are you an experienced payroll professional with LGPS knowledge looking for your next temporary role?

We’re working with a client who has an excellent opportunity for a Payroll & Pensions Officer to join their team for three months. You’ll work closely with the Payroll & Pensions Coordinator, helping keep monthly payroll running smoothly and making sure employees are paid accurately and on time.

It’s a varied role where you can put your payroll and pensions experience to good use, take ownership of your work and be a helpful point of contact for employees.

What you’ll be doing:

• Supporting monthly payroll, including salary changes, statutory payments, deductions and employee benefits.
  
  
• Preparing payroll reports and reconciliations, spotting discrepancies and getting them resolved.
  
  
• Supporting LGPS administration, including pension calculations, contributions and returns.
  
  
• Working with HR to keep employee records accurate and up to date.
  
  
• Answering payroll and pension queries clearly and professionally.
  
  
• Helping prepare information for internal and external audits.
  
  

What we’re looking for:

You’ll have practical payroll experience, a good understanding of LGPS and confidence working with payroll systems. You’ll enjoy getting the details right, be comfortable working to deadlines and communicate well with colleagues.

A relevant finance qualification, such as AAT, would be welcome, but equivalent hands-on experience is equally valued.

Salary: £15.71-£18.00
