Requirements

• Direct coordination of EOR providers, payroll advisors, or local payroll contacts across multiple countries.

Proficiency in English required. • Experience with commission and bonus calculations. • Experience running a payroll migration from an external provider to in-house processing yourself. • Experience in high-growth, multi-entity, multi-country environments. • The nature of combat has changed. • Tomorrow’s battlefield success depends on autonomy, speed, and adaptability. • And UFORCE is ready.

Responsibilities

• Run UK and US payroll cycles from start to finish: validate all inputs (new hires, leavers, salary changes, bonuses, commissions, time off), review every payroll register, and coordinate with the US EOR and international payroll advisors. • Act as the main contact for European entities that run their own payroll: receive monthly payroll data, reconcile it against HRIS headcount, and keep a single accurate record of who sits on which entity's books. • Own statutory filings and tax portal access for UK and US payroll, and produce consolidated group payroll reporting to support month-end close, accruals, reconciliations, and audit. • Administer benefits and pension schemes in every country: enrollments, changes, leaver removals, entity transfers, reconciliations to payroll and provider invoices, and the annual renewal cycle with brokers and providers. • Move payroll onto our in-house platform in each country where we hold a local entity, covering statutory registration, data migration, parallel running, and cutover. Set up and run payroll for a separate US entity on its own system ahead of a planned handover to local ownership. • Build and maintain the payroll operating rhythm (calendars, SOPs, controls, knowledge-base materials) with regular audits across payroll, HRIS, benefits, and provider data. • Hold external providers and country contacts to agreed timescales, and resolve discrepancies before they reach an employee's pay. • Answer employee questions on pay, pension, and benefits quickly, accurately, and confidentially, against a published response standard.
