In this role, you'll be a trusted point of contact for employees and managers, ensuring working hours, leave, and payroll-critical data are recorded accurately and on time.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with data, systems, and people - and who takes pride in getting the details right.

• Managing and maintaining the time and attendance system, ensuring data is accurate and up to date
• Collating and submitting payroll-critical information in line with monthly cut-off deadlines
• Acting as the first point of contact for time, attendance, and payroll-related queries
• Supporting managers and employees with guidance on working hours, overtime, and leave
• Producing regular and ad-hoc reports to support payroll processing, HR, and management insight
• Administering all types of leave, including annual leave, sickness, and other authorised absences
• Investigating and resolving system warnings or data discrepancies to maintain data integrity
• Completing payroll input sheets, new starter documentation, and wider HR administration as required

What we're looking for
We welcome applications from people with a range of backgrounds. To succeed in this role, you'll ideally bring:
Essential experience and skills

• Proven experience (around 2+ years) in payroll, time & attendance, or a similar administrative role
• Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy when working with data
• Confidence using systems and spreadsheets, particularly Google Sheets
• The ability to manage multiple tasks, prioritise effectively, and meet deadlines
• Clear and professional communication skills, both written and verbal
• A proactive, solutions-focused mindset with the resilience to adapt in a changing environment
• A high level of discretion when handling confidential employee information

Desirable

• Experience working with HR or payroll systems (HRIS)
• Experience in a high-volume or manufacturing environment

At Guidant Global, we believe in supporting our people to thrive. You can expect:

• A supportive, inclusive working environment where your contribution is valued
