Payroll Advisor (39156)

Location: We offer hybrid working, with an expectation that you'll be present at one of our Holland & Barrett office in Nuneaton (CV10 7RH) for a minimum of 2 days per week. 

The Role

If you enjoy being the quiet hero who keeps thousands of colleagues paid correctly and on time - the kind of person who makes payroll look effortless even when it isn't - this might be exactly your kind of challenge. 

This is a 12-month fixed term role where you'll play a key part in making sure colleagues across our retail stores, distribution network and head office are paid accurately, on time, and in line with UK regulations. 

Your day-to-day will include: 

  • Running payroll end-to-end with precision and efficiency. 
  • Responding to payroll queries with clarity and patience - written or verbal. 
  • Carrying out manual calculations for SSP and SMP 
  • Building and checking payment files using Excel. 
  • Processing expenses payments 
  • Reconciling payroll reports so everything balances  

How we'll know you're making an impact 

  • Colleagues get paid accurately and on time - consistently. 
  • Payroll queries are resolved quickly, clearly, and with great service. 
  • Our reporting and reconciliations are clean, reliable and audit ready. 
  • You spot issues before they become problems, because you're already two steps ahead. 
  • The payroll team runs smoothly thanks to your organisation and attention to detail. 
The Person

What you'll need 

  • Previous experience working in payroll (you know the rhythm, the deadlines, the pressure). 
  • Strong computer skills, especially Excel, plus familiarity with payroll systems. 
  • Exceptional attention to detail - the kind of person who notices when numbers don't look right. 
  • Great communication skills, able to explain payroll matters to people at all levels. 
  • Confidence managing multiple deadlines in a fast-paced environment. 
  • A calm, customer-focused approach  
What we offer
  • The salary's competitive - we'll talk numbers early
  • 25 days of holiday + 8 Bank holidays
  • 25% staff discount across our range - plus free online delivery - so you can live the wellness you help deliver.
  • Pension contributions - because future-you deserves a break.
  • Free wellness diagnostic tests - knowing your health is the first step to improving it.
  • Exclusive discounts on wellness services, gym memberships, and more.
  • Perks from other retailers - discounts, advice, and savings from brands you actually use.
  • A culture of wellbeing - from mental health support to menopause coaching, we're serious about helping you feel your best.
