* Creating, reviewing new policies and procedures.
* Reconciliation of month‑end payments to external agencies, such as HMRC and our pension provider. Hybrid working – our approach is to be in the office or on client site a minimum of 2 days per week. However, the actual time you spend and where you spend it will vary by role or assignment.
