We are currently recruiting a methodical and highly efficient Service Control Technical Expert to work within the Payroll Service at Lancashire County Council. If you have a wealth of payroll knowledge and the ability to inspire and engage colleagues, this is the perfect opportunity to develop your career in the world of payroll. Our main focus is to provide service excellence reaching our daily targets, adhering to Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and Service Level Agreements (SLAs). The service supports over 32,000 employees working in public sector organisations and Service Control plays a vital part in achieving our goals.
It is an exciting time to join us as we navigate new software such as Oracle Fusion, exploring the possibilities and functions of this database to use to our advantage. You will be a proactive technical expert striving for the best possible outcomes, keeping in line with statutory, legislative, and contractual obligations.
What We Are Looking For…
Challenge: you must be a highly organised individual who can juggle competing responsibilities whilst working with technical experts on the team – we want you to be approachable and able to manage your own workloads. You will promote development and encourage employees to rise to any challenges by supporting them to work well together.
Service Excellence: you will be an expert in your field with experience of working within a customer focused, payroll based setting – we need someone who can hit the ground running with the ability to identify key areas that require additional focus or development. This environment is fast‑paced which requires analytical and reporting skills to ensure we remain compliant, delivering a beneficial payroll experience to any and all clients. You will be self‑motivated with a willingness to learn on the job and develop your own knowledge – we want you to be reactive and be able to deal with any legislative changes all while maintaining a smooth process to our payroll customers.
Collaborative: you will be a personable professional being able to form positive and effective working relationships across payroll teams and other service areas – we want an excellent communicator who can get their point across clearly leaving no room for misinterpretation.
Why join us…
Benefits: There's fabulous flexibility and the opportunity to create the work‑life balance you'll love with up to 32 days annual leave plus bank holidays, 2 additional days at Christmas and an additional 20 days that can be purchased. We have a generous Local Authority pension with shared AVCs available, and a benefits package which includes dog care, day care, holidays at home or abroad, long service awards, Medicash, support groups, cycle to work schemes, eye tests and more.
Development: you’ll get support and development along the journey – time for supportive reflection and supervision, opportunities for personal growth, multidisciplinary initiatives, mentoring, the opportunity to make a difference, feel valued and achieve the job satisfaction you’ve always wanted.
Inclusivity: we don’t have a “one size fits all” idealism; we embrace diversity and that includes personal and family requirements so we’ll appreciate that you want to be working from home when you can; your hours may vary or change and for us – delivering successful outcomes is more important than watching the clock.
Please ensure you have uploaded and attached your supporting statement to evidence how you meet the criteria for the role. The panel may be unable to shortlist you for interview without this evidence.
In return Lancashire County Council offers a range of benefits, which can be found on LCC Vacancies website.
We reserve the right to close down a vacancy early, before the closing date, if we receive sufficient applications.
