Who we are and what we do

The Payroll office is part of Human Resources and one of the University's central administrative support services. Our aim is to provide a first class service to all customers by:

• dealing with Payroll queries
• processing all Expenses and Fees payments for internal and external personnel
• providing advice on the reimbursement of relocation expenses.

The department processes monthly payrolls for the salaries payroll (SAL) and the variable payroll (VAM) as well as providing a payroll service for Unitemps, the University's temporary worker agency (AGW) and the Sessional Teachers Payroll (STP). Payments are made electronically via BACS, directly into the individual's bank/building society account.
