Full job description

Xylem is a Fortune 500 global water solutions company dedicated to advancing sustainable impact and empowering the people who make water work every day. As a leading water technology company with 23,000 employees operating in over 150 countries, Xylem is at the forefront of addressing the world's most critical water challenges. We invite passionate individuals to join our team, dedicated to exceeding customer expectations through innovative and sustainable solutions.

Senior Analyst, Payroll Services
Location: Nottingham

At Xylem, we’re united by a shared purpose: solving water challenges worldwide. As a leading global water technology company, we’re committed to creating advanced technology and trusted solutions to help communities and industries move, treat, analyze and protect water more effectively.

We are looking for a Senior Analyst, Payroll Services to join our team. This is a senior specialist role with responsibility for supporting complex payroll operations, benefits administration, time management, and leave of absence processes for the assigned country. You will act as a subject matter expert, helping to ensure compliance, improve processes, and deliver an excellent employee experience.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced payroll professional who combines strong technical expertise with a continuous improvement mindset and the confidence to work across HR, Finance, vendors, and business stakeholders.

What you’ll be doing

In this role, you will lead and support end-to-end payroll activities for your assigned country, ensuring payroll is delivered accurately, on time, and in line with local legislation and internal controls. You will manage complex payroll-related matters including tax treatment, benefit deductions, absence impacts, off-cycle payrolls, retroactive adjustments, year-end activity, and special payments.

You will also act as a key point of expertise across benefits, time management, and leave of absence processes, helping to resolve escalated issues, support system improvements, and ensure that payroll-related impacts are accurately reflected across processes and systems.

Alongside day-to-day operational support, you will play an important role in compliance, reporting, and continuous improvement. This includes supporting audits, maintaining accurate records and documentation, validating payroll data and reporting, identifying risks and discrepancies, and driving standardisation, automation, and service enhancements across the function.

As a senior analyst, you will work closely with Country HR, People Support, HRIS, vendors, Finance, and other stakeholders, providing insight, guidance, and trusted support on payroll matters.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for someone with strong payroll expertise and a solid understanding of the local regulatory landscape, together with the ability to manage complexity in a fast-paced, international environment.

To be successful in this role, you will typically bring:

Proven payroll experience, with at least 5 years of progressive experience in payroll operations.
Local qualifications in Payroll or Accounting.
A Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources or a related field is preferred.
Strong knowledge of payroll legislation, tax regulations, controls, and compliance requirements.
Experience supporting payroll, time, and benefits processes, ideally in a complex or multinational environment.
Strong systems capability, including payroll, time, and benefits platforms.
Advanced Excel skills, including pivot tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, conditional formulas, and data validation.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate discrepancies and identify solutions.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
The ability to work independently, manage sensitive information confidentially, and drive improvements proactively.

Experience with financial processes such as payroll journals, reconciliations, and cost allocations would be an advantage, as would country-specific tax expertise.

Why join Xylem?

At Xylem, you’ll be part of a global organisation with a meaningful purpose and a strong commitment to innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement. We offer the opportunity to work in a dynamic international environment where your expertise can make a real impact, both in how we support our people and in how we continue to evolve our services.

If you are a detail-oriented payroll professional with strong technical capability and a passion for improving processes, we’d love to hear from you.

#LI-Hybrid
