Payroll Administrator
eps.group services
Remote-friendly
Are you an experienced payroll professional looking for a role that gives you the flexibility of remote working — without sacrificing the support, progression and teamwork of being part of a thriving organisation? This could be the opportunity for you.
We are recruiting a Payroll Administrator on behalf of a leading national accountancy and business advisory firm. With a strong and growing client base, an ambitious culture and a clear commitment to its people, this is a business going places — and they want driven, detail-oriented payroll professionals to grow with them.
This is a primarily remote role, offering genuine flexibility in how and where you work. You will be expected to attend the office — located conveniently on the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire border — for key team meetings and training, so you remain connected to a genuinely collaborative and forward-thinking team.
The Role
Working as part of a dedicated payroll team, you will be responsible for processing payroll accurately and on time for a portfolio of clients. You will build strong relationships with clients and colleagues, handle day-to-day queries, and ensure full compliance with HMRC requirements and relevant legislation. No two days will be entirely the same, and you will have the backing of a large, specialist firm behind you.
Key Responsibilities
- Processing end-to-end payroll for a client portfolio, including weekly, fortnightly and monthly payrolls
- Submitting Real Time Information (RTI) to HMRC accurately and on time
- Managing new starters, leavers and mid-period changes
- Administering auto-enrolment pension contributions and maintaining accurate records
- Handling payroll queries from clients and employees in a professional and timely manner
- Supporting year-end processes including P60s and P11D reporting where applicable
- Staying up to date with changes in payroll legislation and HMRC requirements
- Collaborating with the wider accounts and advisory teams to ensure a seamless client experience
You will thrive in this role if you bring solid payroll experience and a genuine passion for accuracy. We are looking for someone equally comfortable working independently and as part of a wider team.
- Demonstrable experience in payroll administration, either in-house or within an accountancy or payroll bureau environment
- Working knowledge of payroll legislation, HMRC requirements and auto-enrolment
- Confident using payroll software — experience with IRIS, Sage or similar platforms is advantageous
- Highly accurate with strong attention to detail and the ability to meet deadlines under pressure
- Excellent communication skills with the confidence to liaise with clients directly
- Self-motivated and well-organised, with the ability to manage your own workload remotely
- CIPP qualification is desirable but not essential — a positive attitude and willingness to develop will be equally valued
In a competitive market for payroll talent, this role genuinely stands apart. Here is what makes it worth your attention:
- Primarily remote working with the trust and autonomy to manage your own day
- Join one of the most ambitious and fast-growing accountancy firms in the UK — a business with real momentum behind it
- Clear internal career pathways — this firm invests meaningfully in the progression of its people
- Collaborative, relationship-driven culture where you are supported, not just managed
- A friendly, people-first team that values quality of work and quality of life
- Exposure to a varied and interesting client base across multiple sectors
