Job Description

Citadel Source is supporting a well-established organisation with the appointment of a Payroll & HR Administrator on an initial 6-month fixed-term contract.

This is an urgent requirement, and the successful candidate will ideally be available to start immediately or at very short notice.

The Role

You will take ownership of the end-to-end payroll process, whilst also providing general HR administration support.

The organisation has several locations, so the successful candidate can be based at either the Cardiff or Newport office. Hybrid working is available, with typically 2–3 days per week required in the office.

About You

We are looking for an experienced payroll professional with strong end-to-end payroll experience and the confidence to manage the payroll function independently. A strong understanding of HR processes and administration would be highly desirable, particularly given the combined payroll and HR responsibilities of the role.

Responsibilities

  • Managing end-to-end payroll processes
  • Payroll calculations and manual adjustments
  • Processing bonuses, commissions and other payroll adjustments
  • Carrying out payroll administration and final payroll checks
  • Dealing with payroll and HR queries
  • Providing general HR administration support
  • Working independently and managing your own workload
  • Adapting to change and working effectively within a changing organisation

What the client has to offer

  • A salary between £30,000 and £35,000
  • Hybrid working: 2 days in the office, 3 days working from home
