Payroll Administrator

As a result of internal mobility, Stantec have an opportunity for a Payroll Administrator to join our Finance Team. The role is to be based from either our Manchester or Warrington offices with hybrid working allowing for a mix of home and in-office working.

This is a great opportunity to join a successful engineering consultancy during an exciting period of growth. You will be joining a well-respected payroll team who are responsible for the timely and accurate processing of payrolls for all of our UK and Ireland employees.

The Payroll Administrator role is a varied one, where you will be able to use your payroll knowledge to assist with accurate processing of our payrolls, ensuring compliance with internal processes, analysing reports, and resolving payroll queries. You will also be involved in updating systems with new starters, leavers, overtime, allowances, company benefits, and other related processes. You will work collaboratively with our Payroll Manager and other Finance Team members to provide an excellent level of customer service and to deliver a wide range of projects across the organisation.

If you enjoy working within a fast-paced environment, within a supportive payroll team, then we would love to hear from you.

For this Payroll Administrator opportunity, you will need to have prior experience of working in an in-house Payroll Team. You will also need up to date knowledge of DC pension schemes and of HMRC legislation.

You will be able to work with high levels of accuracy and be comfortable with working to tight deadlines. You will have an understanding of the importance of compliance and adhering to controls and be a confident user of Microsoft Excel and Word. Above all you will have great organisation skills and be happy working within a team environment.
