About the Job
We have a fantastic opportunity for someone with previous payroll experience to join our busy, talented, and friendly payroll team!
In this fast-paced role, you will assist with the end-to-end processing of our global payroll service, consisting of UK, European and Asian payrolls. An elevated level of diligence is essential to process and input all paperwork accurately and to such detail that another member of the team can follow it.
Working in a team of four and reporting into the Lead Payroll Advisor, the role of Payroll Assistant is a busy one and you will be expected to meet the various deadlines across 21 payrolls to pay all 2000+ global employees accurately, on time, every time. You will need to be highly organised and plan your work efficiently, as you are responsible for the end-to-end service, processing, balancing, and making payments, juggling multiple priorities.
Being a trusted member of the team, you will be required to support the delivery of payments in different currencies, understanding the different payroll challenges of each country, and will assist with month-end reporting to both internal and external departments. You will be adaptable and consistent in responding positively to ad hoc requests.
Our Payroll Assistant will need to be confident and communicative, as the role requires interaction with employees on a one-to-one basis and assisting with employee workshops. It is important you have both the desire to listen and understand the employee to ensure they receive an excellent experience and be able to deal effectively with third parties.
You will enjoy continuing to learn, keeping up to date with all relevant payroll legislation (both within the United Kingdom and any other countries within which Games Workshop operates) and internal processes, ensuring Games Workshop is always fully compliant.
To succeed in this role you will have experience processing UK payrolls and a good knowledge of payroll legislation. Strong Microsoft Excel skills are essential. Any experience of using the iTrent payroll system and, or experience using reporting software to create and run reports is an advantage.
If you are an excellent problem solver with a can-do attitude, we would love to hear from you!
