Summary
If you are an experienced payroll professional looking for something a bit more interesting than the usual desk-based role, this is a great opportunity to get involved in one of the UK’s most high-profile infrastructure projects.
Our client is looking for a Senior Payroll Coordinator to join their team at Hinkley Point C (Bridgwater), supporting the weekly payroll for a large, site-based workforce. This is not a quiet, slow-paced role, it is busy, deadline-driven, and genuinely important to keeping operations running smoothly on site.
You will take ownership of payroll for around 400 employees, making sure everything is processed accurately, on time, and in line with site agreements and union rules. From checking timesheets and handling adjustments to managing queries and supporting audits, you will be right at the centre of it all.
You will be working closely with both the on-site Commercial Team and Central Payroll, so strong communication and organisation skills are key. If you enjoy being trusted to get on with your work, take responsibility, and make an impact, this is the role for you.
This role would suit someone who already has payroll experience and is confident working with systems and data. If you have worked in construction, contracting, or a unionised environment before, that will definitely help, but is not essential.
The role is based at Hinkley Point C with a hybrid setup — 3 days on site and 2 working from home. Travel to site is made easy with organised transport routes from places like Taunton, Bridgwater, Weston and Minehead.
Working hours are Monday to Thursday 08:00–16:15 and an early finish on Friday at 15:00.
On top of a salary between £35,000 and £40,000, you’ll get a strong benefits package including pension, bonus scheme, life cover, 33 days holiday, wellbeing support, and ongoing training and development.
Our client has a strong reputation for looking after its people, with real opportunities to grow and progress. This is a chance to build your experience in a complex environment while being part of something much bigger.
Start date is June 2026 and BPSS security clearance will be need to be obtained for this role.
If you are looking for a role where your work actually matters, and you want to be part of a major UK project, please apply.
