Job Description

Our London-based Payroll team is highly skilled in providing payroll services to internal stakeholders, closely collaborating with Regional and Global Operations, People and Culture, Finance, Tax, and Risk to ensure seamless payroll delivery. With a regional focus, we ensure accurate and compliant payroll operations by leveraging our partnerships with external payroll vendors. While Macquarie offers hybrid working, this role does require 3 days a week in our London office.

At Macquarie, our advantage is bringing together diverse people and empowering them to shape all kinds of possibilities. We are a global financial services group operating in 31 markets with 56 years of unbroken profitability. You'll be part of a friendly and supportive team where everyone contributes ideas and drives outcomes.

What role will you play?

Using your first-class practical payroll expertise, you will provide payroll delivery for EMEA, supported by the Payroll Manager. Your responsibilities will include handling business-as-usual activities, problem-solving, resolving stakeholder and employee queries, and identifying opportunities for process improvement and automation to reduce risk.

What you offer
  • 3+ years of payroll experience, with a strong understanding of end-to-end payroll processes, calculations, disbursements, bank management, tax and social security withholding, and benefits administration across EMEA.
  • Good technical knowledge of payroll legislation and regulations, including basic tax compliance.
  • Proficiency in MS Office, especially Excel, with the ability to analyze large datasets to identify trends and opportunities for process improvement.
  • Attention to detail and the ability to handle competing priorities in a deadline-driven environment.
  • Strong numeracy, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills, with the ability to work independently and collaboratively within a dynamic global team.
We encourage anyone inspired to build a better future with us to apply, whether or not they meet every requirement. About Financial Management, People and Engagement
