Payroll Manager– Global Scope, Real Impact

London (Hammersmith) | Hybrid (3 days office) | Full-time or 4-day week

We’re looking for a Payroll Manager who thrives on precision, loves a challenge, and can bring structure and efficiency to complex, global reward operations.

This is your chance to run payroll and benefits for a truly international team – from London to Singapore – while shaping processes that make a difference for every colleague in our business.

You’ll report to our Chief People Officer, work closely with our Finance Director, and be part of a centralised reward function that operates across multiple borders and cultures.

What you’ll be doing

• Own our global payroll – UK, Canada, Australia, Spain, Austria, France, Italy, USA, Singapore, and more – using platforms like Papaya, Deel, Justworks, and IRIS.
• Stay ahead of legislation – guiding local payroll compliance changes and ensuring smooth transitions.
• Manage reward cycles – from Annual Salary Review to quarterly bonus pool reporting and accurate bonus processing.
• Lead our share schemes – including LTIP and SAYE management, data accuracy, nominations, launches, and vesting.
• Oversee benefits – flexible benefits platforms, PMI, pensions, loans, renewals, and taxable benefit reporting.
• Keep us on budget – delivering real-time payroll vs. budget reports and quarterly analysis with Finance.

What you’ll bring

• An eye for detail that borders on perfectionist (in a good way!).
• Advanced Excel skills – you can wrangle data like a pro.
• Organised, methodical, and calm under pressure.
• A natural problem-solver with a logical approach.
• Experience working in fast-paced environments, both independently and as part of a team.
• Confidence working across multiple countries, cultures, and platforms.
• Truly global role – your work will touch every corner of the business.
• Hybrid flexibility – 3 days in our vibrant Hammersmith office.
• Part-time option – open to a 4-day working week.
• Collaborative culture – work with people who value precision, improvement, and results.

If you’re ready to take ownership of a complex, global reward and payroll function – and keep it running like clockwork – we’d love to hear from you.
