This Position reports to:

Payroll Administrator (0.8 FTE)

You might just be the most important person in our entire organization. Thanks to you, every colleague receives their salary on time each month. A big responsibility.

Within our HR organization, HR Operational Services is responsible for implementing and managing payroll and HR policies at all levels of the company. We support the business and support departments in managing various HR disciplines such as Compensation & Benefits, Recruitment, Talent Development, Payroll & Personnel Administration, and related legal matters.

What will you do at ABB?

You ensure that all national and international colleagues are paid correctly and on time, based on legal and collective labor agreement regulations. Meeting every deadline is truly critical. As a Payroll Administrator, you are the person behind the payslips, and therefore the first point of contact for colleagues with payroll-related questions.

You’ll work with a ticket system, which keeps everything organized and allows you to set priorities. In addition to your daily responsibilities, you’ll regularly participate in projects. For example, we’re currently implementing Workday, a global HR information system – a project where your input will be valuable.

Your responsibilities

• Entering and checking periodic payroll output.

• Providing accurate salary cost information to the finance department – you’re the main contact.

• Managing and checking various changes related to pension funds and employee insurances.

• Identifying and executing process improvements within established frameworks.

• Performing internal audits for the Netherlands and Belgium and preparing external audits – you identify and resolve discrepancies.

Your team

With you on board, the HR Operational Services team in the Netherlands will consist of 6 colleagues – all friendly, capable professionals. You’ll work alongside one direct colleague who also handles payroll administration. Your manager applies a coaching leadership style, offering tailored guidance and support. When you're not working from home, you’ll have a desk at our vibrant Rotterdam office.

Who are you?

You’re known for your strong work ethic and practical mindset. No matter how complex a situation, you know how to find the right solution. You prefer to do things efficiently – no unnecessary repetition. With ongoing process changes, you’ll need a sense of ownership and discipline to meet monthly deadlines while also handling projects. You see that as a welcome challenge and an opportunity to grow in your role – and that’s why you’ll fit right in with our mindset.

What else do you bring?

• A background in payroll administration.

• Experience running payroll.

• Knowledge of social and tax legislation.

• Strong Excel skills.

• Proficiency in Dutch and English, both written and spoken.

What does ABB offer you?

A versatile and dynamic 32-hour role within an international company. ABB is invested in your development and offers training, learning platforms like Spark and Harvard ManageMentor, and growth opportunities.

You’ll also receive:

• A gross monthly salary between €4,000 and €5,500 (based on 40 hours), depending on your experience and qualifications.

• 13th month salary.

• 40 days off (27 vacation days + 13 ADV).

• A solid pension plan.

• A company laptop.

• Contribution to your gym membership.

• Fresh fruit available at the office.

• Participation in ABB’s employee share program.

• Access to the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) – a confidential service offering practical support and guidance on work-related or personal matters, such as stress, grief, finances, or relationships.
