• Support the team with day-to-day tasks and problem-solving.
• Work towards a Level 3 Payroll Administrator qualification while earning a salary.

• Are keen to learn and aren't afraid to ask questions.
• Have good attention to detail and take pride in your work.
• Are happy to get stuck in and help wherever needed.
