WeDoData is a specialist recruitment company whose focus is non-teaching support (IT, data, exams, finance etc) in the education sector.

We’re working in partnership with a large training provider in the Cambridgeshire region who are looking for a full time, permanent Payroll & Pensions Manager to join their HR team.

As a Payroll & Pensions Manager you will manage both the end-to-end payroll function and the pensions schemes offered to staff. This is a key role within the People/Finance function, with responsibility for overseeing payroll operations, ensuring statutory compliance, and managing complex public-sector pension schemes.

Due to the nature of the work it is essential that you are able to work independently to process payroll, understand HMRC requirements and be computer literate. If you have prior iTrent experience, this will be a bonus.

You will also be responsible for the line management of the Payroll Administrator.
