The Opportunity

This is an opportunity for an international payroll professional to take ownership of multi-country payroll in a growing company with operations across Norway, Sweden, Luxembourg and soon Finland. Reporting to the Finance Manager, the Payroll Specialist will ensure accurate, timely and compliant payroll across jurisdictions, coordinate external payroll providers, and strengthen the processes, controls and documentation that support a reliable employee experience. The role suits someone who enjoys working across countries, navigating local payroll requirements and building scalable routines in a high-growth international environment.

• Take day-to-day ownership of the external payroll provider relationships, including deadlines, service levels, escalations and periodic review, and contribute to provider selection and onboarding of new jurisdictions.




• Keep the group compliant locally: employer registrations, withholding tax and social security, statutory payroll reporting and filings in each operating country, supported by written country routines.
• Ensure pension agreements and individual enrolments match employment contracts, and that new hires, leavers and salary changes reach pension providers on time.
• Ensure all employees are covered by statutory and contractual insurance schemes and maintain coverage of documentation per entity and country.
• Maintain payroll-relevant employee data, including absence, leave and holiday pay, terminations and final settlements.
• Act as the single internal coordination point towards external law firms on employee-rights questions and employment disputes: collect documentation, instruct counsel and track matters to closure.
• Reconcile payroll to the accounts, support year-end and audit requests, and maintain docum
