About the workplace

Are you ready for a bigger challenge?

The Swedish Police Authority is Sweden's largest authority with approximately 40,700 employees across the country. With us, you have the opportunity to contribute to the Police's mission – to increase safety and reduce crime in society.

The HR department is responsible for creating conditions for a business-driven, professional, accessible, and equitable HR support within the Police Authority. The department is responsible for the authority's overall work in areas such as competence supply, competence development, recruitment and staffing, employer policy/agreements, leadership and employee relations, work environment, and culture.

The Police Administrative Center (PAC) is a section within the HR department tasked with supporting and facilitating for the authority's employees and managers as well as the HR profession. In addition to a support team with two groups focused on HR and payroll, we also provide payroll administration, system support, and business and process development within the HR area. We are a forward-leaning and business-oriented section that is undergoing exciting changes where support is a key function in the ongoing development and efficiency efforts.

The payroll support's mission is to be the first point of contact for the HR department and to offer accessible and value-creating support in payroll matters and the HR and payroll system Heroma. In addition to guidance on payroll issues, we also work to develop our self-service and accessible information for the operations we support.

Job responsibilities

As a payroll officer within payroll support, you will work consultatively and guide all employees of the authority, both managers and staff, via phone, email, and case management systems. Payroll issues, legal and agreement interpretation, as well as user support in the HR and payroll system Heroma are areas you will handle. In addition to daily support, you will contribute to developing work methods and processes and participate in digitalization efforts that strengthen the HR function and the organization.

The work is characterized by both independent and close collaboration, both within the group and with other colleagues in the section, where it is natural for you to share your knowledge and experiences. You will work based on established guidelines, processes, and applicable legislation and see it as a natural part of the job to stay updated. Together, we contribute to a strong community where each individual plays an important role. With us, you will develop and gain lifelong experiences alongside engaged colleagues.

Qualifications

This is an opportunity for you who have:

• Vocational education focused on payroll, or other post-secondary education that the employer deems relevant for this function
• Current work experience in payroll, or other experience that the employer considers equivalent
• Very good ability to express yourself in Swedish both verbally and in writing
• Swedish citizenship

It is advantageous if you also have:

• Current experience of working in support, preferably using the phone as a tool
• Current experience of user support in HR and payroll systems
• Experience of working within a government authority or in other public operations
• Knowledge of the state agreement area

Personal qualities

To thrive in this role, it is important that you are self-driven with a good ability to take personal responsibility for achieving results. You are structured and have good administrative skills. You have a consultative and service-oriented approach in your work, as well as good collaboration skills and find it easy to build trust. Furthermore, you are clear and guide through a responsive and solution-oriented approach. In your work, you need to independently seek out information and enjoy tasks where answers are not always readily available.

As the support and section are in a development phase, tasks may change, which is why we see that you are flexible and can prioritize your tasks according to the organization's changes. The tasks require you to have high integrity and be able to handle sensitive information, as well as the ability to remain calm and focused even during periods of high workload.

We will place great emphasis on personal qualities.
