Role Overview
Albida is looking for a Junior Workday Payroll Consultant to support payroll transformation and implementation projects for clients across the UK and Ireland. This is a great opportunity for someone early in their payroll or HR systems career to build hands-on Workday experience within a client delivery environment, working alongside senior consultants on live projects.
Key Responsibilities
- Support configuration of Workday Payroll elements under the guidance of senior consultants (pay components, earnings/deductions, accumulations)
- Assist with payroll testing, including parallel runs and reconciliation checks
- Help prepare and maintain project documentation, configuration workbooks, and training materials
- Support data validation and troubleshooting of payroll issues during testing and hypercare phases
- Attend client workshops and calls, taking notes and following up on actions
- Assist with year-end processing tasks and statutory reporting support for UK and Ireland
- Build understanding of client business requirements and how they translate into system configuration
- Collaborate with the wider delivery team across HR and finance workstreams
Required Experience
- Some exposure to payroll processes (in-house, bureau, or consulting) — Ireland payroll experience preferred
- Basic understanding of Irish PAYE, PRSI and USC (training will be provided to build this further)
- Interest in HR systems or payroll technology; prior Workday exposure is a plus but not essential
- Strong Excel skills and general comfort working with data
- Degree or equivalent experience in a relevant field (e.g. business, HR, finance) desirable but not required
Skills & Attributes
- Eager to learn, with a genuine interest in payroll and systems consulting
- Good attention to detail and a methodical approach to checking data
- Confident communicator, comfortable asking questions and taking direction
- Organised, able to manage multiple small tasks across a project
- Team player who works well in a collaborative, client-facing environment
- Prepared to work with new technologies
