Your new company
We're a fast-growing, multi-site hospitality group with 15 thriving locations across the UK-and plan to grow the business both in the UK and internationally. With over 400 employees and a flat, collaborative head office structure, we're proud of our record-breaking sales and strong operational foundations.

* Strong Excel skills (VLOOKUPs, pivot tables, data validation).
* Familiarity with IRIS or similar payroll software.
* A detail-oriented mindset with a passion for clean, accurate data.
* Ability to manage both weekly and monthly payroll cycles.
* Strong communication skills and a collaborative approach.
What you'll get in return
* A salary of £35,000 and the opportunity to shape a growing payroll function.
