Group Payroll Administrator

Work where work matters.

We are a global technology group built for what's next, offering high calibre professionals the platform for high stakes work, the kind of work that defines an entire career. When you join us, you're not just taking on projects, you're solving problems that don't even have answers yet.

You will join an exclusive roster of talent that global leaders, including Google, Snap, Diageo, PayPal, and Jaguar Land Rover call when deadlines seem impossible, when others have already tried and failed, and when the solution absolutely has to work.

Forget routine consultancy. You will operate where technology, design, and human behaviour meet to deliver tangible outcomes, fast. This is work that leaves a mark, work you’ll be proud to tell your friends about.

We are looking for a Group Payroll Administrator to support the accurate and timely processing of payroll across the Group. You will play a key role in ensuring employees are paid correctly and on time, while maintaining accurate payroll data, deductions and statutory filings. Working closely with HR, Finance and external payroll providers, you will help ensure payroll processes are delivered to a high standard of accuracy, compliance and efficiency.

We look for people who embody:

Innovation to solve the hardest problems.

Accountability for every result.

Integrity always.

About The Role

• Process end-to-end monthly payroll for employees across multiple group entities, ensuring accuracy and timeliness
• Maintain accurate payroll records, including starters, leavers, and changes to pay and benefits deductions
• Collaborate with the external payroll providers on various jurisdictions and Human Resources to ensure a smooth, accurate, and timely payroll process.
• Manage all payroll-related tax contributions and ensure compliance with applicable requirements.
• Coordinate with the Finance and Control (FC) team to facilitate timely payments
• Calculate and process statutory payments (e.g. SSP, SMP, SPP) and pension contributions in line with regulations
• Prepare and submit RTI returns, P60s, P45s and other statutory filings to HMRC
• Respond to payroll queries from employees and managers in a timely, professional manner
• Reconcile payroll reports against the general ledger and support month-end payroll reporting

This role is designed for impact, and we believe our best work happens when we connect. While we operate a flexible model, we expect you to spend regular quality time on site (at our offices or a client location) for collaboration sessions, customer meetings, and internal workshops.

What Success Looks Like

• Demonstrable experience processing payroll in a multi-entity or group environment working alongside payroll providers in various jurisdictions
• Working knowledge of UK payroll legislation, including PAYE, NI, statutory payments and pension auto-enrolment is a plus
• Experience with payroll software (e.g. Sage, ADP, ResourceLink or similar)
• Strong Excel skills and high attention to detail with numerical data
• Good communication skills, with the ability to handle sensitive information confidentially
• Ability to manage confidential employee data with discretion and in line with GDPR

Desirable Experience (Optional):

• CIPP qualification (or working towards one)
• Experience processing payroll across multiple countries or currencies
• Familiarity with HRIS systems and payroll integrations
