    The University of Birmingham is proud to have been a part of the City of Birmingham and the wider region for over 100 years, and we are equally proud to be recognised as a leading global university.

    We are committed to helping the people who work here to develop through our sector-leading Birmingham Professional programme which provides all professional services staff with development opportunities and the encouragement to reach their full potential.

    With almost 5,000 professional services jobs in a wide-range of functions in Edgbaston and in our campus in Dubai, there are plenty of opportunities for you to be able to develop your career at the University.

    We believe there is no such thing as a typical member of staff and that diversity is a source of strength that underpins the exchange of ideas, innovation, and debate.

    We warmly welcome people from all backgrounds and are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where diversity is at the heart of who and what we are, and how we work.

    Supporting our people to achieve a healthy work/life balance is important both to our employees and to the success of the University and, depending on the role, we offer a variety of flexible working arrangements.

    We therefore welcome discussions on all forms of flexible working.

    In addition, you will receive a generous package of benefits including 40 days paid holiday a year, one paid day a year for volunteering, occupational sick pay, and a pension scheme.

    We also have three high quality subsidised day nurseries.

    The University is situated in leafy Edgbaston and there are excellent transport links to our beautiful campus, including main bus routes and a train station on site.

    The University's HR function works with a variety of colleagues across the institution and is critical to the delivery of many aspects of the University's Strategic Framework.

    We facilitate the recruitment, development, engagement and retention of talented colleagues, helping to create a culture which is both vibrant and inclusive and which facilitates the University's stretching ambition of being a Top 50 institution.

    Reporting to the Payroll & Pensions Manager, this role will be based in the Central Staff Hub and part of the broader HR function at our Edgbaston campus.

    The Central Staff Hub provides a range of generalist and specialist support to the University, including offering strategic direction and specialist advice for recruitment, operational HR, payroll and pensions.

    As Payroll Manager, you will manage and develop the payroll team in providing a fully managed payroll service for approximately 9,000 employees, 3,000 causal staff, and 3,000 pensioners using Oracle Cloud software, ensuring that performance is efficient, accurate, timely and in line with all relevant conditions of service and current legislation as appropriate.

    The main payroll is a complex monthly payroll with a mix of academic, support and casual workers. The role will also oversee our international payroll bureau relationships, supporting our staff in Dubai, China, and Europe.

    Lead and manage the payroll team to ensure the provision of an effective, accurate and responsive service aligned to customer requirements and statutory obligations.

    Maintain full oversight of team deliverables and performance. Coach and support the Payroll team in their work and technical understanding.
    Identify process improvements and efficiencies supporting system development, as required and lead on their implementation.

    Ensure effective communication within the team, the Central Staff Hub and with the university generally in relation to payroll matters.

    Develop and maintain effective relationships with Payroll partners, suppliers, external organisations and bodies.
    Manage third-party providers for overseas payroll activity.

    Responsible for compliance with all statutory requirements of PAYE and pension schemes and ensure accurate and timely reporting as required such as, HM Revenue and Customs Real Time Information.

    Work in conjunction with relevant departments to develop and implement university wide policy and procedures related to payroll, using management information to influence change.

    Comply with relevant legal and financial policies and procedures and be aware of key responsibilities in terms of the legal requirements in relation to the role.

    Plan and organise the broader work of the payroll teams in support of wider HR projects, system changes and organisation change.

    Educated to degree level or equivalent qualification plus substantial work experience in payroll.
    Significant technical expertise in payroll.
    Up to date knowledge of payroll, tax and best practice approaches in these areas.
    Proven capabilities as a people manager, with a flexible and inclusive management style.
    Highly proficient IT skills, including the MS Office suite. You should be confident and able to quickly learn new IT skills and software packages as required.
    Excellent communication skills, with the ability to articulate technical payroll information in clear, well-structured reports and briefs.

    Ability to monitor and evaluate the extent to which equality and diversity legislation, policies, procedures are applied within own business area and organisation wide.

    Excellent planning organisation and analytical skills, including managing change and improvement projects.

    We believe there is no such thing as a 'typical' member of University of Birmingham staff and that diversity in its many forms is a strength that underpins the exchange of ideas, innovation and debate at the heart of University life.

    We are committed to proactively addressing the barriers experienced by some groups in our community and are proud to hold Athena SWAN, Race Equality Charter and Disability Confident accreditations.

    We have an Equality Diversity and Inclusion Centre that focuses on continuously improving the University as a fair and inclusive place to work where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.
