About the role

What a payroll manager does in Birmingham.

A Birmingham business hiring a payroll manager — 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 generating p45s & p60s — one of several things a payroll manager in Birmingham is trusted to get right. Locally, that includes owner-managed companies needing a specific transactional finance hire. In a market like Birmingham, that local knowledge is what turns a rough estimate into a figure you can actually act on.

“Danny provided us resources for over 4 years. He was extremely professional, always understood our requirements and delivered excellent candidates usually at short notice.” — Fanny Anderson, Head of Commercial, Citroën
