Payroll Administrator for Hotel Chain!

Our head office is centrally located in Gothenburg, a stone’s throw from Korsvägen and Avenyn, with good transport links and the city centre just around the corner. Around 30 colleagues work here in areas including HR, payroll, finance, IT, sales, operations and sustainability.

It is important to us to stay close to and understand the operations at our hotels, and to create a workplace where people can take responsibility, develop and enjoy themselves together. Our premises, with their personal furnishings, art and rugs, provide a pleasant environment for focus, collaboration and informal meetings.

Would you like to work in the heart of Gothenburg and become part of the hotel industry? At Ligula Hospitality Group, you will work in an industry full of wonderful people, a strong service ethos, commitment and joy. There is a genuine desire here to help, go the extra mile and create great experiences for others. As part of our HR and payroll team, you will help ensure that our hotel employees are paid correctly and on time.

About the role

We are looking for someone who enjoys working independently and handling the entire payroll process, from administration and checks in the time-reporting system to payslips, accounting documentation and reporting to the authorities.

The HR and payroll function consists of 3.5 employees in addition to the manager. We work closely together as a team and collaborate closely with the finance department and our hotel managers.

In this role, you need to be able to handle questions that arise along the way and independently find answers when there is no obvious solution. We are a small team with broad areas of responsibility, which means you need to enjoy investigating, drawing your own conclusions and finding solutions. At the same time, you are part of a service function for our hotels in Sweden, with many points of contact and a clear focus on providing the support the business needs.

We use CronaLön and TimePlan as supporting systems.

Who thrives with us?

We are a relatively small head office organisation within a larger group. This means close collaboration and short decision-making processes, but also requires flexibility, a willingness to help and the ability to see the bigger picture.

You will thrive with us if you have an entrepreneurial approach, are unpretentious and are happy to take initiative. When circumstances change, we need to be able to adapt, think in new ways and help each other. If a procedure is missing, you can take the initiative to create one, and if something needs doing, you are willing to help even when it falls outside your usual duties. We do not expect everyone to know everything, but we believe everyone can contribute to finding a way forward.

We believe in taking responsibility, helping each other and enjoying ourselves together. Commitment, joy and humour are important parts of our workplace culture, and we want going to work to feel good and to look forward to coming back the next day. For us, a good workplace is linked to how we treat each other and how we work together to get things done.
