Role
Who you are
- You’re at the beginning of your career and genuinely interested in developing your expertise in Payroll and People Operations
- You have studied or are currently studying Labour Relations, Human Resources, Business Administration, Finance, Accounting or a related field
- You’re comfortable working with numbers, spreadsheets and detailed information, and you naturally pay attention to accuracy
- You’re organised, proactive and curious, and you’re comfortable asking questions when you don’t know something
- You enjoy understanding how and why things work, rather than simply following a process
- You’re comfortable handling confidential information responsibly
- You can work professionally in Spanish and have a good level of English
- Previous exposure to A3innuva or other payroll software would be a plus
- Previous experience in Payroll or HR administration is welcome, but not required. We care much more about your potential, attitude and willingness to learn
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Payroll Trainee to join our People Operations team and build a strong foundation in Payroll
- Working closely with our Payroll Specialist and the wider People Operations team, you’ll get hands-on exposure to the full payroll cycle, Spanish labour administration and our HR and payroll systems, gradually taking on more responsibility and ownership as you develop in the role
- This is not a role where you’ll spend your time observing from the sidelines. From the beginning, you’ll work with real payroll processes, employee data and People Operations activities, learning how payroll works in practice within a fast-growing, international company
- You don’t need to arrive knowing everything. We’re looking for someone who is curious, comfortable with numbers, highly attentive to detail and eager to learn. We’ll give you the exposure and support to develop your expertise over time
- It’s a great opportunity for someone at the beginning of their career who wants to build a future in Payroll and People Operations and progressively become more autonomous in the role
- Learn the payroll cycle from end to end: support the monthly payroll process, including the preparation, validation and review of payroll inputs and documentation
- Help us keep our payroll data accurate: maintain employee and payroll information across our systems and make sure changes are correctly reflected and documented
- Support the employee lifecycle: help manage the payroll and administrative side of hires, contract changes, leaves, absences and terminations
- Learn Spanish labour and Social Security administration: support Social Security and other payroll-related administrative processes while developing your knowledge of Spanish payroll practices
- Help ensure payroll is right: support payroll checks and reconciliations, identify discrepancies and learn how to investigate and resolve them
- Keep our payroll operations organised: maintain payroll documentation, trackers and internal controls so that information is accurate, accessible and reliable
- Support our employees: help respond to payroll-related questions and collaborate with People Operations, Finance and our external partners when needed
- Grow your ownership: as your knowledge develops, progressively take responsibility for more complex payroll activities
- Help us work smarter: bring curiosity and fresh ideas to how we operate, contributing to the improvement and automation of our payroll processes
Application process
- Screening call with the Hiring Manager
- In-depth competency interview with the Hiring Manager
- Final interview with the team
