Payroll Coordinator

Hours: Full time or Part time considered

Salary: up to £30,000 (full time equivalent)

We're expanding, and we need a Payroll Coordinator who loves accuracy, thrives on pace, and wants to make a visible impact to join our brand-new head office in Pocklington. You'll report to the Payroll Team Leader and be part of a close knit team that keeps our workforce running smoothly.

We're delighted to welcome both full time and part time applicants. We know flexibility matters, so we're happy to explore shorter workdays to support childcare or other commitments. Just let us know your availability during your interview, and we'll work together to find a schedule that fits.

Why you'll love doing this role at Ashcourt:

• Join a growing, innovative, family run group that builds with quality, sustainability and community in mind
• Access to our Employee Assistance Programme and practical support when you need it, employee benefits app with discounts on gyms, restaurants, and shops, and access to a virtual GP 24/7
• We invest in our people. Learn, develop and progress as our Group continues to expand!

What you'll get to do

• Processing: Own weekly & monthly payroll for circa 700 PAYE employees, plus fortnightly payments for 200 subcontractors, with precision.
• Be the problem solver: Manage the payroll inbox, answer queries with confidence, and elevate when needed.
• Employee lifecycle: Set up starters, process leavers, calculate holiday, and action changes (pay rises, bonuses, commissions, deductions).
• Keep us compliant: Liaise with HMRC, support P11Ds and statutory payments (SSP, SMP, SPP), and translate legislation into clear action. Produce regular and ad hoc reports that leaders rely on.
• Wider team support: Pitch in on HR projects and help us continuously improve how we work.

What you'll bring

• Hands on with Sage 50 (or similar), plus Excel savvy.
• Up to the minute knowledge of UK payroll legislation-and the calm, organised mindset to hit deadlines under pressure.
• A high bar for confidentiality, accuracy and clear communication.
