About the Role

In this role you'll be overseeing payroll services for a portfolio of clients, ensuring accurate payroll processing while supporting and developing junior team members.

What's on Offer?

  • £32,000 - £40,000 depending on experience
  • Friendly, supportive and collaborative team
  • Genuine progression opportunities
  • Ongoing training and professional development
  • Modern, growing accountancy practice
  • Excellent benefits package
  • Monday to Friday

We're working with a well-established and growing accountancy practice in Reading that is looking to recruit a Payroll Supervisor following continued expansion.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced payroll professional looking to take the next step in their career. You'll join a people-focused firm with a fantastic reputation, working closely with clients while helping to oversee the day-to-day running of the payroll function.

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Managing and processing weekly, fortnightly and monthly payrolls for a varied client portfolio
  • Reviewing payroll work to ensure accuracy and compliance with current legislation
  • Acting as the main point of contact for payroll-related client queries
  • Submitting RTI returns and ensuring compliance with HMRC requirements
  • Managing pension submissions, statutory payments and year-end payroll processes
  • Supporting, mentoring and reviewing the work of junior payroll team members
  • Identifying opportunities to improve payroll processes and client service

About You

We're keen to hear from candidates with previous payroll experience, ideally gained within an accountancy practice, bureau or payroll environment. Experience supervising or mentoring others would be beneficial, although applicants looking to step into their first supervisory role are also encouraged to apply.

Even if you don't meet every requirement, we'd still encourage you to apply. We recruit for a variety of accountancy practice opportunities across Berkshire, Surrey and Hampshire and may have other roles that are an even better fit.
