A Day in the Life
Working in payroll means delivering accuracy at pace. A typical day might start with processing weekly or monthly payrolls, checking client data, and making sure everything matches up. You might then handle queries about tax codes, pensions or maternity pay, or help a business understand a change in legislation.
Collaboration is key — you’ll work closely with Accounts, Tax and Client Support to ensure everything aligns. It’s a fast-moving area, but that’s what makes it rewarding.
