We're looking for a Payroll Specialist to join our People & Payroll team — a group that takes accuracy, compliance, and continuous improvement seriously across every jurisdiction we operate in.
You'll own the end-to-end payroll cycle for your assigned locations, working directly with outsourced payroll providers as their primary operational contact. Attention to detail matters here, but so does automation thinking and a genuine drive to make processes better. This isn't a role where you wait to be told what to fix.
You'll report to the Payroll Team Leader, who leads global payroll governance and strategy — giving you a clear structure and room to focus on what you do best: running payroll well.

primary point of contact for outsourced payroll providers.- Liaise with internal partners to ensure timely and accurate collection of all payroll
input data.- Reconcile payroll each cycle and resolve variances before sign-off.
- Validate payroll outputs including gross-to-net calculations, statutory deductions, and
final reports before payment authorisation.- Manage and resolve complex payroll issues and employee escalations with
professionalism and empathy.- Ensure all HR systems are used efficiently to improve data inputs and reduce manual
handling.- Collaborate with HR Operations and Finance on payroll-related matters.
Compliance & Statutory Obligations- Ensure payroll is processed in line with local statutory requirements and internal
controls in each jurisdiction.- Meet all employer filing deadlines: payroll tax, social security, pension contributions,
and year-end returns.- Ensure all payroll documentation is complete and audit-ready after each pay cycle.
- Maintain records and documentation to support internal and external audits.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date employee payroll data in HiBob and vendor
systems.- Act as the payroll point of contact for internal and external audit requests.
Vendor Coordination- Serve as the day-to-day contact for external payroll vendors across all assigned
locations.- Provide vendors with complete and accurate payroll data within agreed timelines.
- Review vendor outputs, raise queries, and confirm sign-off before payroll is released.
- Flag vendor delivery issues or quality concerns to the Payroll Team Leader.
Process, Automation & Continuous Improvement- Maintain up-to-date SOPs and process checklists for your jurisdiction portfolio.
- Identify inefficiencies and manual steps; propose and implement improvements to
enhance payroll accuracy and efficiency.- Support systems and process upgrades, automation initiatives, and change
management efforts.- Collaborate with internal and external partners to drive automation within the payroll
function.- Contribute to team-wide continuous improvement initiatives led by the Payroll Team
Requirements:
Leader.- 5+ years of payroll processing experience, ideally across multiple jurisdictions.
- Experience working with outsourced payroll vendors as the primary operational
contact.- Automation driven attitude.
- Experience managing payroll across multiple legal entities within a group structure.
- Comfortable working with HR systems; experience improving data input quality and
