Kanadevia Inova is looking for a skilled and motivated HR & Payroll Administrator on a temporary basis with the potential for an extended duration.

Start date: mid-September 2025

End Date: end-May 2026

This position is based from our Farnborough office in Hampshire, UK and you will need to live locally because you will be required to work from the Farnborough office 3 days per week, with the other 2 days per week (Weds and Fri), working from home.

Successful candidates will need to be immediately available for the required start date and already have the legal right to work in the UK.

You will need to be able to travel to our facility in Dublin, Ireland, not extensively, but a least for the set-up phase and for a few days each time you travel to Dublin.

This is a hands-on role focused on the execution of transactional HR services, with a strong emphasis on payroll and payroll set up. We are particularly keen to hear from those with payroll set-up experience: ensuring the payroll system is configured correctly for new hires, new schemes, or even a brand-new payroll process.

Key Responsibilities (not limited to)

• Payroll set-up and processing

• Deliver transactional HR services locally, aligned with Group P&C processes

• Manage personnel administration including contracts, onboarding/ offboarding and payroll interface

• Ensure local HR compliance with employment laws and Group governance

• Collaborate closely with global P&C colleagues to implement strategies and initiatives

This list of responsibilities is not exhaustive and may evolve based on business needs.

• Proven experience in payroll set-up and administration, with the ability to ensure accuracy and compliance. Payroll qualifications or formal training are advantageous but not essential.

• A solid understanding of employment law, contracts, and compliance would be highly desirable.

• Experience in managing change, supporting managers and leaders, and resolving a wide range of HR-related issues.

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, with knowledge of HRIS systems considered an advantage.

• Exceptional attention to detail and the highest standards of confidentiality.

• Confident and professional in formal discussions with colleagues and departments across the business.

Offered on a temporary basis until May 2026

For HR agencies: Please note that we do not accept applications coming from agencies. Thank you.
