The role

📍 Barcelona

Have you started your professional career in the labor area and would you like to take a step forward by managing payroll from start to finish?

We are looking to hire a Payroll Specialist to join the team of a renowned professional firm in Barcelona, with an international environment and direct contact with clients.

The position is especially designed for a junior profile, eager to learn and grow, who has already had their first experience—including internships with real content—in the payroll area and wants to start assuming greater autonomy and responsibility.

What you'll do

You will become responsible for a client portfolio, including international and English-speaking companies, participating in the entire payroll cycle:

  • Preparation and review of payroll.
  • Registrations, terminations, and modifications with Social Security.
  • Social security and CRA files.
  • Contracts and labor communications.
  • Management of payroll incidents.
  • Application and interpretation of collective bargaining agreements.
  • Preparation of tax forms related to personnel.
  • Direct contact and follow-up with clients.
  • Resolution of labor inquiries related to daily management.
