We’re growing again! Thanks to some exciting new client acquisitions, we’re looking for 2 experienced Payroll Administrators to join our friendly, people-first team - Junior and Mid level positions.

You’ll be part of a tight knit pod team, together, you’ll manage a portfolio of payroll clients, primarily in the hospitality sector - think pubs, cafes, restaurants, and hotels.

About the Role

Job Title: Payroll Administrator (Junior and Mid level positions)

Hours: 37.5 hours per week

Location: Fully remote (UK-based), with periodic in-person teambuilding days

Salary: Based on experience

You’ll be part of a tight-knit pod, who truly values you. Together, you’ll manage a portfolio of payroll clients, primarily in the hospitality sector – think pubs, cafes, restaurants, and hotels.

You’ll take end-to-end ownership of your own client portfolio – running their payrolls from start to finish, building strong relationships, and becoming a trusted point of contact for all things pay-related. You’ll need to be comfortable on client calls (phone & zoom), working across different Time & Attendance platforms, importing/exporting data, and using Excel to clean and manipulate timesheets quickly and efficiently. Spotting anomalies, streamlining processes, and making payroll look effortless? That’s your jam.

Who We’re Looking For

We’d love to hear from you if you:

Have 3+ years of payroll experience
Have worked in a payroll bureau or managed multiple payrolls
Are comfortable liaising with clients directly and thrive in a 121 F2F environment
Have strong excel skills including hands-on experience with VLOOKUPs, XLOOKUPs, and pivot tables, as the role requires a high level of data manipulation
Have experience working with Time & Attendance systems
BrightPay experience is a benefit, but not essential
Stay one step ahead and know how to manage your own time like a pro
Are curious about how things work and always thinking “Could we make this easier or faster next time?”
Pay close attention to detail and enjoy solving problems before they become issues - accuracy, consistency are key
Communicate clearly and kindly, keeping it human – you know how to keep clients informed, not confused
Want to work somewhere that genuinely values people – both its clients and its team

What Makes This Role Different

We’re not a button-pushing, check-the-box kind of payroll bureau. We’re hands-on, helpful, and focused on making life easier for our clients. That means:

You’ll own your work and be trusted to get it right – Accuracy and curiosity is key.
You’ll be part of a values led, people first culture which adds value to clients and the YPM team
We love a good process but hate red tape
Knowledge sharing is our thing – we solve problems together and advise our clients
No jargon, no egos – just smart, supportive people doing great work
