Job Description

Payroll Administrator

Lancaster | Up to £30,000 | Monday-Friday | Hybrid after probation

Looking for a career in payroll rather than just another administration job?

If you’re organised, enjoy working with numbers and pride yourself on your attention to detail, this could be the perfect opportunity.

My client is looking for a Payroll Administrator to join their growing team in Lancaster. You’ll receive full training in umbrella payroll, making this an excellent opportunity for someone with strong administration skills who wants to develop a long-term career in payroll.

What will you be doing?

You’ll support the payroll process for agency workers across the UK, making sure they’re paid accurately and on time.

Your day will include:

  • Processing weekly payroll.
  • Speaking with recruitment agencies and contractors by phone and email.
  • Checking timesheets and payroll information.
  • Resolving payroll and pay queries.
  • Processing pensions, statutory payments and payroll documentation.
  • Maintaining accurate employee records and ensuring compliance.

No two days are the same, so you’ll enjoy a varied role where organisation and attention to detail are key.

What are we looking for?

You’ll be someone who:

  • Has strong administration skills and excellent attention to detail.
  • Enjoys speaking with people and providing great customer service.
  • Can prioritise a busy workload.
  • Is keen to learn and build a career in payroll.
  • Payroll experience would be an advantage, but it isn’t essential as full training will be provided.

What’s in it for you?

  • Salary up to £30,000.
  • Full training and ongoing support, including study support for CIPP
  • Genuine career progression into a Senior Payroll role.
  • Friendly and supportive team.
  • Modern offices in Lancaster.
  • A stable, growing business where you can build a long-term career.

If you’re looking for a company that will invest in your development and give you the opportunity to build a career in payroll, I’d love to hear from you.
