This is an opportunity for someone with a background in NHS payroll processing, payroll administration or pensions to bring their specialist knowledge into a professional, client-focused environment, supporting the delivery of accurate and compliant payroll services.

With remote working available, we're keen to hear from talented individuals across the UK who have the right experience, whether you're an established payroll specialist or an experienced administrator with a strong NHS payroll and pensions background.

Depending on your experience and the requirements of the role, responsibilities may include:

• Supporting the accurate and timely processing of NHS payrolls, ensuring deadlines and compliance requirements are met.

• Previous experience working with NHS payroll and pensions.
• A sound understanding of NHS-specific payroll processes and pension arrangements.
• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to payroll accuracy.
• The ability to investigate queries, identify discrepancies and resolve issues methodically.
• Good organisational skills and the ability to work to strict deadlines.
• Confident communication skills and a professional approach to handling sensitive information.
