Finance & Payroll

Finance
Money, money, money. It’s all the employees in the financial departments ever think about when they’re at work (but then, that’s what they’re paid to do).

It’s their responsibility to keep track of Arriva London’s finances – which can mean anything from the issuing of a cheque to the forecasting of future revenue.

There are a whole host of jobs that need to be done to ensure that the books balance at the end of the month and that all the bills are paid on time. Not to mention VAT returns, cash flow, credit control and fuel rebate returns.

There is also a strategic side to the management accounts, as part of a large PLC our finance department must ensure that budgets are controlled and profit and loss forecasts are made accurately.

Payroll
Making sure that Arriva’s workforce of over 5,000 employees get paid correctly is no mean feat either.

The payrolls department ensure that whether it’s the weekly or monthly paid staff, all the payrolls are processed correctly and timely. There is also the matter of pension and national insurance contributions to calculate, not to mention the Inland Revenue.
