So, what is the role? Well we have no fancy job titles or elaborate job descriptions to list…. but we are clear on what we are looking for you to do:

The key aspect of this role will be to ensure that our clients payrolls are completed accurately and on time, providing a strong supportive role to our Account Managers in relation to the processing of Payroll for our clients for all 1700+ clients which vary in frequency (weekly, monthly, fortnightly) and in size (1 to 800+ employees)

  • Managing a large number of payrolls ranging from Sole traders to Ltd Companies.
  • Weekly and Monthly Payroll processing.
  • Dealing with SMP, SSP and SPP, Coding notices, P45s.
  • Online filing of all relevant HMRC forms.
  • Dealing with mid-month starters & leavers.
  • Calculating pay rates/overtime/bonus/pay raises/holiday for clients when required.

  • Managing CIS schemes.

Our intense training programme will help any new Team member get to grips with the very specific way we do things and training is given in all areas. Saying that thought, we do insist that ALL of our Payrolls Ninja’s have previous experience within the payroll world – having received payslips before wouldn’t qualify you J, but what would, is at least 1 years’ experience of working within a multi payroll function, ideally within an accountancy practice or specialist payroll bureau would be beneficial.

Over the last 18 months, our business has grown substantially and with that growth we have fundamentally changed our business model. Along with our office-based team, we have fully embraced the remote working set-up. We have now got this set-up down to a fine art, so if you want to avoid the commute and simply love rolling out of bed and jumping onto the computer to work, we can accommodate this (although we have a casual dress code, no pyjamas for zoom meetings please :)).

All sounds fantastic right? then what are you waiting for…. Apply now!

Customer Support Specialist

(Office based only)

This is a NEW role and it’s materialised due to our growth. Things here are moving quickly (we doubled in size last year and we’re aiming for the same again this year…).

This new role is required to help cope within an area that has come under strain as we get bigger, so this is truly a job that you can put your own mark on.

This isn’t a payroll processing role…we already have that covered with our fabulous Payroll Processing Team in place. This role will be geared towards supporting that Team and dealing with our customers, we have come up with the catchy title of Customer Support Specialist

The idea of the role, is that you would be the point of contact for our customers, so if they want to discuss something about their payroll, either a question or query, it would be YOU they would be dealing with. Likewise if the client hasn’t sent in their pay instructions or we have a question or query, YOU would be calling or emailing them to get answers.

You might be thinking ‘but i don’t know anything about payroll, Tax or National Insurance’. We get that, and that’s why this role has been designed that you haven’t got to be a payroll expert (we have those here already!) you would be responsible for getting the responses from the team and communicating these back to customers in a timely manner (in a non technical way) oh, and do it by following our systems (the good news is that we are a highly systematic set-up that makes that process much easier).

However, we also understand that it would be massively beneficial if you did know the foundations of Payroll, so we would support YOU working towards a payroll qualification as well.

We got the team involved and asked them to brainstorm what they think would be required for someone to be successful in this new role, so here goes:

  • Fantastic on the PHONE – Listen intently, know what questions to ask, able to summarize answers to customers, the ability to juggle potentially back 2 back calls and make clear notes for each call.
  • Great COMMUNICATION skills – knowing when to listen (i.e. maybe a confused client needing help). How to speak on different levels to different clients, being able to clearly ask questions to the Team, having that skill of smashing out emails in a non techy manner.
  • CALM & Patience – Being able to manage your emotions – this will help when that same customer calls you for the 7th time, asking the same question…
  • Dealing with PROBLEMS – Yes, sometimes customers call for a chat but most of the time they have a problem or a question and it’s our job to solve it, the speed and quality of the response is what we want to set us apart and keep our clients happy.
  • TIME Manager – We are in a deadline driven industry, we can’t miss a pay or submission deadline but equally we need to be able to manage off time expectations for a client we have promised to call back today.
  • Doesn’t mind the FASTLANE – This role will be fast paced and switching from one task to another will just be part of the job, so somebody that can quickly pick up on an issue and be able to see a clear/speedy path to resolution (Problem Solver) is a given.
  • Awesome at ADMIN – meaning: Highly organised, tech savvy, multi-tasker, with a great eye for detail.

We love being open and would much rather be upfront and tell you how it is. This role will be a ‘head spinner’ and fast paced, what we’re saying here is, if you are looking for a steady, boring role, this wouldn’t be the one to apply for.

However, if you want a role, that will push and challenge YOU and to work for a business that is truly looking to become an industry leader, we just might have your next job ready and waiting.

We honestly don’t want you wasting your time applying for this role if you aren’t suitable, so please ONLY apply for this role if:

  • You have at least 2 years experience in a previous Customer Service or Account Manager role.
  • Within that role you engaged with customers both over the phone and via email.
  • You can resonate (through experience) in connection to the bullet points above.
  • You are willing to undertake a Payroll Course in order to understand the service we offer (don’t worry we won’t be asking to your run our clients payrolls – just understand the service we provide).

Retail only experience unfortunately won’t be considered for this role

All sounds fantastic right? then what are you waiting for…. Apply now!
