We are recruiting for an experienced Payroll Business Partner to join the local authority on a temporary basis, supporting payroll operations across the Council during an important period of change.

With a new payroll system being implemented, we are looking for someone with strong working knowledge of SAP Payroll who can step in and make an immediate impact.
