About the Team

We are looking to recruit a Payroll Officer which sits within the Corporate Centre Group (CCG) of the Group Finance Team. CCG delivers a wide range of corporate services to enable people at HM Treasury and many of the other organisations who form part of the Treasury Group (including the Government Internal Audit Agency and the Debt Management Office) to operate effectively and efficiently.

The team provides high quality advice covering strategic finance, financial management, financial reporting, counter fraud & risk for internal use, payroll and accurate information for Parliamentary control and public accountability purposes.

The payroll team is a small but key team based in Norwich. The team provides the payroll function for HM Treasury employees and the employees of 5 further government departments. We value our people and collective team spirit to enable us to deliver high-quality services to our customers.

About the Job

In this role, you will:

  • Assist in the effective running of the monthly payroll cycle for HM Treasury and 5 Arms Lengths Bodies (6 payrolls in total).

HM Treasury is proud of a diverse and inclusive work environment, committed to fairness and the promotion of equality of opportunity for all. We know that having a range of experiences, ways of working and thinking makes us a stronger organisation, better at developing policy that is reflective of the communities we serve.
