Implement and configure Human Capital Management (HCM) software, including Payroll, HR and Employee Self Service, to meet customer needs.
Run end-to-end solution walkthroughs, training sessions and customer presentations, both remotely and on-site.
Gather, validate and document customer requirements using structured project delivery approaches.
Manage Payroll and HR data, including collection, validation, reconciliation and parallel payroll runs to support successful go-lives.
Your skills and experiences might also include:
Experience with payroll outside the UK, such as working with other tax authorities like Revenue Online Service (ROS) in Ireland.
Hands-on experience with full-cycle payroll processing, including onboarding, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) submissions and pension auto-enrolment.
Strong data skills, with confidence using tools like Microsoft Excel, Power BI or similar reporting and analysis tools.
Familiarity with payroll software implementation, Real Time Information (RTI) processes and database structures, with a payroll qualification such as CIPP as a bonus.
