Job Description:

Project Manager, Payroll & Workforce Management

Location: Midlands or Southern England – hybrid working

We are supporting a leading global professional services organisation looking to appoint a Project Manager within its growing Payroll & Workforce Management advisory practice.

This is not a traditional payroll operations role. You’ll lead complex transformation and technology projects for large UK and global organisations, working across payroll, HR and workforce management.

You’ll manage projects from initial scoping through to delivery, owning project plans, governance, budgets, risks and stakeholder communication while leading multidisciplinary teams across

multiple locations.

We are looking for:

  • Experience managing large-scale, complex transformation or technology projects
  • A strong understanding of payroll, workforce management or HR technology
  • Experience working with large, high-headcount organisations
  • Confidence managing senior stakeholders, third-party vendors and distributed teams
  • Dayforce or UKG experience would be advantageous, but experience with other payroll, HR or WFM platforms will also be considered
  • Consulting experience is useful but not essential

Why this role?

You’ll join an experienced and highly regarded team at a time of significant growth, working on genuinely complex programmes with major organisations. There is also a clear opportunity to develop your consulting experience and progress your career.
