Job Title: Payroll Implementation Consultant

Salary: Up to £40,000

Location: Fully Remote (UK) – Flexible Working Hours

Contract: Full-time, Permanent

We’re partnering with a high-growth payroll and HR technology provider supporting staffing and recruitment agencies across the UK. The business operates in a fast-paced, start-up environment and is scaling quickly, making this a great opportunity for someone early in their implementation career who already has solid hands-on experience and is keen to grow.

This role focuses on end-to-end payroll software implementations, working closely with clients throughout the full lifecycle — from discovery through to go-live. You’ll be client-facing, tech-savvy, and comfortable juggling multiple projects at once.

Key Responsibilities:

Manage multiple payroll implementation projects in parallel, ensuring successful and timely go-lives.
Own end-to-end delivery including timelines, risks, and stakeholder communication.
Work closely with clients to gather requirements and translate them into system configurations.
Support payroll data management, migration, validation, and testing.
Configure and adapt the platform to meet client-specific requirements while maintaining scalable solutions.
Build reports and dashboards to support client visibility post-implementation.
Act as a trusted point of contact for clients, balancing approachability with the confidence to challenge where needed.

Experience & Skills Required:

Proven end-to-end payroll implementation experience.
Experience implementing payroll software and strong technical confidence.
Solid understanding of UK payroll legislation and payroll terminology.
Experience working with payroll data, including migration and validation.
Exposure to staffing, recruitment, healthcare, or education payrolls (highly desirable due to complex shift patterns).
Experience with Salesforce is advantageous but not essential.
Strong client-facing skills with a consultative, personable approach.
