Payroll Administrator

A bit about the roles

We are currently helping two separate, well-established local businesses find experienced payroll professionals to join their teams. One role is based in Newton Abbot and the other is in Torquay. Both clients are genuinely lovely to work with and are happy to look at either full-time or part-time hours to suit the right person.

In either position, you will be the go-to person for the company payroll, managing the processing from start to finish within a friendly, supportive team environment.

What you will be doing

• Handling end-to-end payroll processing to ensure everyone is paid accurately and on time
• Managing all the usual statutory bits like SMP, SPP, SSP, and pensions
• Working efficiently to keep on top of strict weekly and monthly processing deadlines
• Keeping the payroll database up to date and maintaining secure, accurate records
• Answering any payroll or tax queries from staff in a helpful manner
• Keeping your eye on the latest HMRC rules and legislation changes

What we are looking for

• Experience: You must have proper, hands-on experience in a dedicated payroll role
• Software: You will need to be comfortable using Microsoft Excel alongside Sage Payroll (or something very similar)
• Knowledge: A solid, up-to-date understanding of UK payroll rules, auto-enrolment, and calculations
• Skills: Excellent communication skills, great attention to detail, and the ability to manage your own workload to hit deadlines

How to apply

If you have the right payroll background and are looking for a fantastic local role that offers genuine flexibility, we would love to hear from you.
