About the Role:We are recruiting for a Payroll Assistant to join our client, a well-established firm based in Paisley, on an initial 3-month contract. This role is ideal for someone with strong payroll experience, particularly with Sage Payroll and HMRC submissions, who can hit the ground running with minimal supervision.

Key Responsibilities:- Processing payrolls (simple and small payrolls)
- Submitting pension files (through The People's Pension)
- Handling HMRC submissions and year-end processes
- Finalising payrolls before the current staff member departs on 28th February
- Using Sage Payroll for automated payroll processing
- Importing bank statements via Sage AutoEntry
- Experienced Payroll Professional - Comfortable handling year-end processes, HMRC, and Sage Payroll independently
- Detail-Oriented & Proactive - Someone who doesn't need hand-holding and can manage payroll efficiently
- Strong Knowledge of Auto-Enrolment - Experience with The People's Pension would be beneficial
- Availability - Able to start Monday 17th February and commit to the contract until 15th April
This is a part-time role, and we are happy to work around the right candidate's schedule. Ideally, hours would be compressed between Tuesday - Friday.
