Miniclip is a games company founded in 2001 and headquartered in Neuchatel. It started as one of the largest online casual gaming portals and became a major mobile publisher with titles such as 8 Ball Pool. The company belongs to the Tencent group and operates studios across Europe.

Miniclip is looking for a Junior Global Payroll Specialist to join our People team and support the accurate and timely delivery of payroll across our international locations.

Reporting to the Global Payroll Manager, you will work closely with external payroll providers, People and Finance colleagues to prepare payroll inputs, check employee data and resolve day-to-day queries. This is an opportunity to build your international payroll knowledge while contributing to process improvements and the adoption of new payroll technologies.

What will you be doing at Miniclip?

  • Support monthly payroll processing across multiple countries, coordinating inputs and deadlines with internal teams and external payroll providers.
  • Prepare and check payroll data, including new joiners, leavers, salary changes, benefits and absences.
  • Identify discrepancies, help resolve routine payroll issues and escalate more complex queries when needed.
  • Maintain accurate payroll records, documentation and audit trails, handling employee information confidentially.
  • Respond to routine payroll queries, providing clear and timely support to employees and colleagues.
  • Assist with payroll reconciliations, reporting, audits and month-end activities alongside Payroll and Finance colleagues.
  • Help document and improve payroll processes, including the use of systems, automation and approved AI-enabled tools.
  • Support People Operations projects, including system implementations and integrations.

What are we looking for?

  • Around 1-2 years of experience in payroll administration (or equivalent experience).
  • A basic understanding of payroll processes and employee data management, with a willingness to learn about payroll requirements across different countries.
  • Strong attention to detail and organisational skills, with the ability to manage deadlines and check data accurately.
  • Good Excel skills and confidence working with numerical information.
  • Clear communication skills and a collaborative approach to working with colleagues and external providers.
  • Sound judgement when handling confidential information.
  • A proactive approach to learning, solving problems and improving processes.

A degree in Human Resources, Accounting, Finance, Business Administration or a related subject, or equivalent relevant experience, would be welcome.

Experience in an international environment, familiarity with payroll or HR systems, or exposure to outsourced payroll providers would be an advantage, as would an interest in automation, data analysis and payroll technology.
