About the Role
This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys learning fast, thinking differently, and taking on new challenges, even if Payroll isn't your background (yet).
In this role, you'll help drive results by turning data into insight, exploring how AI and automation can improve the way we work, and partnering closely with external vendors and internal teams. You'll be trusted to ask smart questions, challenge the status quo, and bring fresh ideas to complex problems.
We're looking for someone with strong analytical thinking, curiosity, and energy, someone who is excited to grow their understanding of the Payroll and vendor management space and who enjoys finding creative, practical solutions.What You'll Be Doing
• Learn the landscape, then improve it
Build an understanding of our Payroll ecosystem and vendor partnerships, and use that knowledge to identify opportunities to improve quality, efficiency, and outcomes.
• Turn data into insight
Analyse trends, spot risks, and connect the dots to support clear, confident decision making-without needing to be the subject matter expert on day one.

• Comfort working with data, insights, and presentations
• An interest in AI, automation, and modern ways of working
