Job Description - Payroll Assistant

Payroll Assistant

Up to £150 per day (Umbrella)

6-8 Week Contract

Hybrid - 2 Days a Week in Manchester Office

This role will need to operate through an Umbrella company and all employer, employee tax and NI will be deducted from the rate.

You'll be joining an established payroll function with four existing Payroll Specialists, concentrating solely on a critical 2-year backdated reconciliation and review process.

As a Payroll Assistant, you'll play a key role in reviewing historical payroll data, ensuring correct PAYE allocation, addressing overpayments, and working through 14 cases (not all with discrepancies). Pre-built reports will be available for download via HMRC, and while the organisation uses HiBob and ADP, experience with these systems is not essential.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Review and analyse 2 years of payroll history
  • Investigate PAYE reference misallocations
  • Resolve overpayment issues and discrepancies relating to HMRC
  • Collaborate with the payroll team to share insights and findings
