The hours of work are Monday to Thursday 8.30 to 5pm and 4.30pm on Fridays.
My client is currently recruiting for a Payroll Supervisor to join a well-established organisation, overseeing the accurate and timely processing of weekly and monthly payrolls while supporting and supervising the payroll team.
This is a hands-on role for someone who combines strong technical payroll knowledge with excellent organisation, communication and people-management skills.
The Role:
As Payroll Supervisor, you will take responsibility for the end-to-end processing of payrolls, ensuring accuracy, compliance and excellent service to clients and employees.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Supervising and supporting the payroll team to ensure payrolls are processed accurately and on time.
* Processing weekly and monthly payrolls from start to finish using COINS payroll software.
* Checking payroll calculations and ensuring all payroll information is accurately entered.
* Managing statutory payments and deductions, including Student Loans and Court Orders.
* Processing holiday and sickness absence and calculating relevant leave entitlement.
* Managing Auto-Enrolment pensions and calculating pension contributions.
* Completing RTI/FPS submissions and dealing with HMRC queries.
* Calculating pro-rata, daily and hourly rates, including term-time-only employees.
* Supporting payroll year-end procedures and P60s.
* Ensuring payroll processes remain compliant with current legislation.
* Reviewing payroll information and carrying out appropriate checks before submission.
* Providing guidance, support and training to members of the payroll team.
* Helping to identify and implement improvements to payroll processes and procedures.

We are looking for an experienced payroll professional who is confident supervising a team while remaining hands-on with the day-to-day processing.
You will ideally have:
* Extensive payroll experience, ideally within a bureau or client-focused environment.
* Proven experience processing weekly and monthly payrolls end-to-end.
* Previous supervisory or people-management experience.
* Strong knowledge of payroll legislation and statutory deductions.
* Experience with RTI/FPS, HMRC, pensions and year-end procedures.
* Excellent attention to detail and a high level of accuracy.
* The ability to manage workloads, meet deadlines and prioritise effectively.
* COINS payroll/ERP experience would be advantageous, although training will be provided on the company's in-house systems.
What we are looking for:
You will be someone who is technically strong in payroll but also enjoys leading and supporting a team.
You will be confident dealing with payroll queries, checking the work of others and ensuring deadlines are consistently met. Most importantly, you'll have a strong eye for detail and take pride in delivering an accurate, professional payroll service.
Benefits you will receive:
* 25 days annual leave (plus bank hols)
* Pension Scheme
* Single health cover
* Employee Assistance Programme
* Reward Discount Scheme
