- Prepare and review test cases, regression scenarios, and payroll validation reports before releases.
- Work closely with UI/UX teams to ensure payroll dashboards and workflows are intuitive and aligned with user needs.
- Deliver product walkthroughs, client demos, and internal knowledge-sharing sessions on payroll updates and functionalities.
- Stay updated with HMRC, TPR, and pension provider changes to ensure complete compliance.
