Are you experienced in running payrolls for multiple clients at once? Do you come from a payroll bureau or practice background where managing deadlines, juggling varied client needs, and providing a first-class service is second nature?
If so, this Client Payroll Executive role in Coventry could be just what you're looking for.
This established, people-focused business is adding to its payroll team and is looking for someone who enjoys client contact, thrives under pressure, and wants to work in a genuinely collaborative environment. The payroll team has a brilliant reputation internally - they support each other, share knowledge, and keep things positive and light-hearted while delivering excellent service.
The Role:
You'll manage your own group of client payrolls from start to finish, with plenty of variety day-to-day. Key duties include:
- Taking ownership of weekly, fortnightly and monthly payrolls for a range of clients
- Setting up new payrolls and handling PAYE registrations
- Processing everything from statutory payments and pensions to bonuses, commissions, and salary adjustments
- Uploading pension files, submitting returns, and preparing benefit-in-kind reports (P11Ds)
- Completing year-end tasks such as P60s and reconciliations
- Handling RTI submissions and resolving any HMRC discrepancies
- Offering practical advice to clients around payroll queries, benefit schemes, and PSA arrangements
- Providing a reliable, approachable point of contact for clients and their staff
This isn't a back-office processing role - you'll be client-facing and hands-on, with plenty of autonomy over your own work.
Who We're Looking For:
- Someone with previous experience running multiple payrolls, ideally from a payroll bureau or practice environment
- Confident knowledge of UK payroll compliance and legislation
- A strong communicator who enjoys building relationships with clients
- Great organisational skills - able to handle shifting priorities without letting quality slip
- Experience with STAR or cloud-based systems is a bonus, but not essential
What You'll Get in Return:
- A fun and friendly payroll team who work closely together
- Clear opportunity to step up and grow with the business
- Exposure to a wide range of client industries, including UK and overseas businesses
- Hybrid working options for better work-life balance
- A supportive environment that values development and contribution
