About the job
What is my role?
Our client is looking for you as a key figure for an exciting area of responsibility where payroll accounting and personnel administration go hand in hand. You take responsibility for the entire payroll cycle and actively shape the HR processes.
Your area of responsibility includes:
The complete payroll administration is in your hands: You open personnel files, process the monthly payrolls, ensure correct accounting, and create meaningful reports. Year-end closing tasks also belong to your duties.
You are jointly responsible with the team for the entire personnel administration and act as a competent contact person for all questions regarding payroll and personnel
Time tracking falls within your area: You ensure data quality and create relevant evaluations
In cases of insurance claims (daily sickness benefits, accident, disability), you take over both the administrative and financial processing including case management
Applicant management is also part of your tasks
You supervise a commercial trainee and pass on your expertise as a vocational trainer
What makes this position special: You have real scope for design! Process optimisation is expressly desired, and your ideas for improving workflows are sought after.
What do I need to be successful?
This role suits you if you bring not only theoretical knowledge but above all practical experience and implementation strength.
The foundation:
A solid further education in the HR field is of course great – whether as an HR clerk, payroll specialist, or with an HR professional certificate. However, practical experience is decisive: Several years of professional experience in payroll accounting is required, whereby the entire process should be mastered not only theoretically but in daily practice. Direct implementation experience in payroll accounting is absolutely essential for this position.
What you bring:
Labour law, social security law, occupational pension? For you, these are not foreign words but daily tools
You feel absolutely confident in payroll accounting and can keep a cool head even in hectic times
Ideally, you have already worked with a payroll system. Whether Nexus or a comparable tool, you know how such systems tick
In short: We are looking for someone who not only prepares payrolls but understands what lies behind them.
What are my benefits?
What makes this position so special?
Our client offers you genuine freedom to shape a role that challenges and promotes you. You work in a team that supports each other.
Your expertise is in demand: You can actively think along, question processes, and improve them. Short decision-making paths mean your ideas are heard and implemented.
Specifically, this means for you:
A versatile position where you can demonstrate and expand your skills
A corporate culture where appreciation is lived daily
The opportunity to pass on your knowledge to junior staff as a vocational trainer
An environment where you can really make a difference
What distinguishes the company?
Our client is a successful company with several locations in the region. The organisation is characterised by a respectful corporate culture and a collegial working environment. Here you do not just process numbers. You are part of a professional team that makes a real contribution. The HR department is well structured and is now looking for you to strengthen the team!
