Payroll Team Leader

As a Payroll Team Leader, you will be responsible for the day to day management of one of our Payroll Teams, processing monthly and weekly payrolls, within our set deadlines.

You will be the first level of support for some of our Payroll Team, therefore must be able to maintain effective working relationships, whilst providing training on a day to day basis in all aspects of payroll and pensions work.

You will be expected to analyse, collate and balance statutory deductions and prepare complex reports for internal and external agencies in a timely and accurate manner.

One of the main responsibilities is to plan, manage and collate information ready for input into the ESR system, in line with AfC and Medical & Dental Terms and Conditions, in order to make correct payments to NHS employees. This involves the use of multiple URP's within the ESR system.

Calculations of statutory and occupational payments will also be required, therefore knowledge in relation to these regulations is essential.

You must have strong communication and organisational skills, alongside a strong knowledge of NHS Payroll and Pension legislation.

Every day brings different but rewarding challenges in ensuring accurate salaries for NHS staff are paid on time.

Are you a highly motivated versatile individual who has the drive, enthusiasm, ability, and knowledge to drive our services forward and thrives on a challenge? If so, this is a fantastic opportunity to come and join our Payroll Team.

We are looking for an experienced individual to join us as a Payroll Team Leader, who can bring a wealth of NHS knowledge and payroll experience to our team of 95 payroll colleagues.

If you have a wealth of payroll knowledge, within an NHS environment and the ability to inspire and engage colleagues and clients alike, then this is the perfect opportunity to progress your career within a shared service environment and payroll/pension world.

A high standard of work ethic will be what helps you succeed together with a proven track record of delivery.

If you think you are the person we are looking for, who is knowledgeable and has the ability to improve services and bring innovative ideas, whilst having a great mind for numbers and excellent analytical skills, then we would love to hear from you.
