Payroll Admin Assistant - Immediate Start

Temporary Payments / Payroll Administrator - Immediate Start

Think Accountancy & Finance are delighted to be supporting this brilliant business once again as they look to bring in immediate temporary support within their Payments team.

This is an immediate start temporary role, ideal for someone with experience in payroll administration, timesheets, invoicing, or payment processing, who can hit the ground running and provide short-term cover during a busy period.

You'll be joining a friendly, organised, and motivated Payments team, supporting the accurate and timely processing of payments for subcontractors and employees. You'll have responsibility for your own workload, with support from the Payments Manager throughout the assignment.

• Processing subcontractor and employee timesheets

• Supporting payroll and payment runs

• Managing invoicing in line with agreed terms

• Discussing and resolving discrepancies confidently

• Completing reconciliations and maintaining accurate records

• Updating agencies and stakeholders with relevant payment information

• Supporting FPS submissions in line with RTI requirements

• Assisting with debt recovery processes where required

• General finance administration and team support

This role would suit someone who already has some hands-on experience in a finance or payroll environment and is comfortable stepping into a busy role at short notice.

We're keen to hear from candidates who:

• Have experience handling timesheets, payroll admin, invoicing, or payments

• Are confident dealing with payment queries

• Can prioritise tasks in a fast-paced environment

• Have good Excel and general admin skills

(Backgrounds could include payroll administration, finance admin, accounts assistant, payments admin, or high-volume query handling.)

• Temporary role - immediate start

• Likely duration: short-term cover (with potential to extend)

• Full-time, office-based

• Monday - Friday 9:00 - 17:30

• Salary equivalent: 24,000 - 25,275 (paid hourly)

If you're available immediately and looking for a hands-on temporary role within a supportive team, this could be a great opportunity to step in, add value quickly, and build further experience.
