Payroll Specialist

About The Role

We’re on the lookout for a brilliant Payroll Specialist who’s got a head for numbers, a love for detail, and a passion for making sure everyone gets paid correctly and on time (because who doesn’t love payday?). You’ll be the go-to person for all things payroll—keeping things running smoothly, staying on top of compliance and legislation, and making sure our people feel supported and confident when it comes to their pay, ensuring accurate and timely processing of employee payroll. We believe our people are our superpower. That’s why we’re all in, together, five days a week onsite—because creativity, collaboration, and growth thrive when we’re face-to-face. If a £1 bet in a pub between two mates can become the UK’s most trusted electrical retailer, just imagine what we can do next.
