We deliver on what we say, taking the development of our people seriously. We’ll work with you to progress your success plan and provide opportunities to accelerate your career.  On top of a competitive salary, our standard 25 days holiday (which goes up the longer you’re with us), and a matched pension scheme, you’ll also be able to choose from a range of benefits to suit you. We’re an organisation that likes to give back, so you’ll also have one charity day allocated to support a cause that matters to you.     About you: You will be setting up and configuring new accounts, importing data and training administrators to use the system to ensure that they are getting the most out of the system. The size of projects and sectors vary substantially but the requirement to deliver an excellent customer experience underpins everything we do. You will work with the team to ensure a successful delivery through the lifetime of the onboarding. Performance will be measured on project delivery, customer satisfaction and utilisation of your time. You will be dealing with various products, projects and customers at any one time so you will need to be able to manage a number of tasks simultaneously. An excellent phone manner, tenacious attitude and good problem-solving skills are required to ensure that we are always delivering the best customer experience. Members of this team are able to take initiative, be proactive and own and manage tasks through to completion.

There will be a focus on continuous improvement of the FlightPath process. We will constantly strive to empower our customers to self-serve using user-friendly, structured documentation and videos, without compromising the customer journey.

Take full responsibility for developing your product knowledge to enhance onboarding effectiveness. • Produce high-quality training materials such as video tutorials and documentation and drive continuous improvement in processes to ensure our services are always evolving and meeting customer needs. • Conduct detailed payroll processing alongside the customer’s live run, comparing outputs to identify and resolve any variances in partnership with the build team and the customer. • Oversee payroll setup tasks, including BACS setup, penny tests, and HMRC agent authorization requests. Your skills and experiences might also include: • Deliver exceptional customer service with a professional telephone manner, combining analytical and problem-solving skills with a drive to continually improve processes and systems, specifically within payroll and financial software. • Excel in managing multiple payroll projects by planning and prioritizing effectively, ensuring project administration is up to date, and working both independently and collaboratively in virtual and in-person settings. • Adapt quickly to new payroll applications and technologies, with a strong foundation in Excel, data manipulation, and importing. Knowledge of relational databases, web technologies, and Access products is desirable, along with an understanding of payroll legislation and processes. • Demonstrate a solid interest in payroll processing and financial software, supported by CIPP knowledge and experience in customer-facing roles.

We wholeheartedly believe in equality for all and the transformative power of diversity. Why not join our vibrant team where you can love what you do, love how you live, and most importantly, be authentically you? Let's make a difference together. Love Work. Love Life. Be You.
