Joining our Payroll Operations team at Sainsbury's offers a rewarding opportunity to contribute to the accurate and timely delivery of payroll services for our diverse business.

What you'll do
In this role as a Senior Payroll Practitioner, you will be an integral part of the Payroll Operations team, responsible for ensuring the accurate and timely production and administration of Payroll services. Your primary responsibility will be to deliver transactional input, either directly or indirectly, to enable Payroll processing. This includes performing validations and reviews of remote input to the payroll system, responding to error and warning messages, executing data uploads, validating and inputting payroll-related data, undertaking post-pay run error recycle activities, processing pay corrections, and maintaining and processing loan requests.
Who you are
As a Senior Payroll Practitioner, you are a highly skilled professional with a deep understanding of all aspects of payroll service delivery, including statutory compliance, company policies, and authorisation procedures. Your strong knowledge of HR policies and procedures within the Sainsbury's Group, along with your ability to build relationships and collaborate with wider HR teams, enables you to provide a high standard of service and contribute to improving processes and service delivery.
We are committed to being a truly inclusive retailer, so you’ll be welcomed whoever you are and wherever you work. We also recognise and celebrate colleagues when they go the extra mile and, where possible, offer flexible working. When you join our team, we’ll also offer you an amazing range of benefits. Here are some of them:
Starting off with colleague discount, you'll be able to get 10% off at Sainsbury's, Argos, TU and Habitat after 4 weeks. This increases to 15% off at Sainsbury’s every Friday and Saturday and 15% off at Argos every pay day. We've also got you covered for your future with our pensions scheme and life cover.
Your wellbeing is important to us too. You'll receive an annual holiday allowance, and you can buy additional holiday. We also offer other benefits that will help your money go further such as season ticket loans, cycle to work scheme, health cash plans, pay advance (where you can access some of your pay before pay day) as well access to a great range of discounts from hundreds of other retailers.
Please note, due to the volume of applications we receive, our roles may close early.
