  • Familiarity with payroll software such as Sage Payroll or Xero Payroll
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage deadlines
  • Excellent communication skills to liaise confidently with clients and colleagues
  • A proactive, adaptable mindset and willingness to learn and grow within the firm
