About the role

What a payroll clerk does in Leicester.

A Leicester business hiring a payroll clerk — or a candidate weighing up an offer — deserves a real figure, not a national average dressed up as local. Day to day, that typically includes calculating national insurance and holiday entitlement — one of several things a payroll clerk in Leicester is trusted to get right. Locally, that includes university and professional services teams needing payroll or transactional finance cover. In a market like Leicester, that local knowledge is what turns a rough estimate into a figure you can actually act on.
