What are payroll managers and payroll experts? What does their professional activity look like?

"Payroll manager" and "payroll expert" are the terms used for two levels of payroll professionals:

  • Payroll managers have completed an Edupool basic course in payroll accounting / payroll management and take on the routine tasks of payroll accounting. Their most important tasks are preparing the monthly payroll and posting personnel expenses.
  • Payroll experts have completed an Edupool advanced course in payroll accounting / payroll management and deal with complex and legally demanding payroll accounting issues. Their main areas of responsibility are complex payroll accounting and pension statements, hourly payroll accounting and payroll accounting for cross-border employment relationships.

Both payroll managers and payroll experts work in the HR department or HR administration of a company or recruitment agency or are responsible for payroll accounting for clients in a trust company.
