Summary

Advert

Keen to find a part-time role and an opportunity to develop your skills? Changeworks is looking for someone part‑time (17.5 hours a week) with strong numerical accuracy and good financial acumen to help keep our payroll and benefits running smoothly.

The HR Officer (Payroll and Benefits) will support monthly payroll changes, maintain accurate records, and assist with benefits like pensions, cycle‑to‑work and wellbeing schemes. Clear communication, attention to detail, and confidence with spreadsheets are essential. Ideal for someone with a basic foundation in payroll who wants to grow their knowledge and experience.

About The Company

Changeworks is a great place to work. We hold Investors in People Platinum accreditation (something only a few organisations in Scotland have), and our staff overwhelmingly would recommend us as an employer too.

The Climate Emergency has resulted in ambitious national targets to reduce carbon emissions from the built environment and reduce rates of fuel poverty. This has driven a significant increase in the number of pilot and large-scale interventions delivered by Changeworks and external organisations in this area. These include area-based domestic energy efficiency retrofit and decarbonisation projects and programmes.

We are a growing organisation, and this role is crucial to the delivery of our ambitious objectives. We want to decarbonise homes in Scotland on a massive scale, and that needs talented individuals like you to help us deliver on our objectives. You’ll receive full training plus coaching and mentoring.

We offer a wide range of staff benefits including flexible working, bike to work scheme, an excellent pension scheme and 26 days paid holiday plus 9 public holidays per year.

At Changeworks, we welcome and encourage applications from everyone.
