As part of our growing HR department, the Payroll team is responsible for over 9,000 Clarks’ people, in 23 different countries.

You’ll have a good understanding of payroll principles relating to the calculation of up to gross and gross to net. If you’ve worked with RTI, Pension Autoenrollment and salary sacrifice, that’d be even better. Ideally CIPP qualified or part qualified, you’ll also be well-organised, detail conscious, and comfortable working at pace to strict deadlines. You understand the importance of payroll to a global organisation, and you’ll use your skills and expertise to maintain our reputation for international excellence.
