About The Position

Fancy working with an established, growth-stage UK Software product company (B2B SaaS), who are building their own payroll system from the ground up? If so, we are looking for a Payroll systems experienced Product Manager / Owner to take the lead! The build is well advanced, but it needs someone with genuine product discipline and deep payroll expertise to finalise the spec, close the gaps and get it ready for customers to use. This is a newly created role, and you would be the first person to bring professional product ownership to it.

Requirements

• Deep, current UK payroll knowledge - PAYE, NIC, RTI, statutory payments, pensions and auto-enrolment

• Strong written communication - comfortable producing specifications others can act on without you in the room

Nice To Haves

• Experience moving payrolls between systems, including data migration, parallel running and reconciliation would be ideal.
• high-volume hourly-paid workforce exposure, and/or CIPP qualification

Responsibilities

• Own the payroll product end to end: requirements baseline, backlog, roadmap and release plan
• Work day to day with engineering and the internal payroll team, testing changes yourself where needed
• Act as the go-to payroll authority for the teams, from a Product point of view.
• Shape the long-term payroll product strategy & roadmap.

Benefits

• Salary: £65,000 to £75,000 basic, plus benefits package.
• Genuine ownership - you're the first person in this seat, shaping the product from spec through to market leadership
• A rare, genuinely differentiated proposition: workforce management and payroll combined natively in one system
• A small, direct team backed by equity investment, where decisions move fast and the person who owns a product really owns it
