Job summary

Formed in 2007, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust is one of the largest NHS trusts in the country with over 13,000 staff. The Trust has five main hospital sites which all have a long track record of success in research and education, as well as influencing clinical practice nationally and worldwide. They also have a growing number of community services and provide private healthcare to increase the funds available for NHS services.

The Trust's Payroll team is high-performing and prides itself on the service it provides to the diverse range of front-line colleagues. The team provides a quality service to the Trust's employees, based on leading-edge best practice and an established team culture. This approach has also made the service highly cost-effective.

The Trust's Payroll team has been chosen as one of two Payroll Hubs to provide payroll services to all of the acute providers and CCGs in the North West London sector. The first client trust was on boarded in April 2022, to be followed by further clients over the next 1 - 2 years.

This represents a new and hugely exciting chapter in the history of a successful team - the goal is to use the hub arrangement to deliver high quality services and cost savings across the sector by sharing and building on the success of Imperial's current team. This role will either be remote working or based at Mount Vernon Hospital.

Main duties of the job
