Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I was looking after the onboarding on Colleagues onto our payroll system and was a part of the team that was first point of contact for colleagues details and contracts. I also wrote contracts for new colleagues joining the company and colleagues moving internally to new roles. I looked after colleague data and monitored salary rates across job roles to ensure all were on the same standard. I completed all of these tasks whilst completing my apprenticeship.
