Payroll ServicesOur payroll bureau exists to take away the hassle of dealing with salary payments. Having staff may start off relatively simple but can quickly develop into a complex hotchpotch with bonuses and deductions to sort out and a need to understand student loan repayments, apprenticeship rewards, pension contributions, statutory sick pay and maternity/paternity pay, as well as having a whole range of HMRC departments to deal with.

ExperienceWe are an experienced payroll team, able to offer continuous support to meet weekly or monthly deadlines for payslips and deductions, as well as providing annual summaries and online filing on your behalf.

Occasional demands, such as joiners and leavers, are dealt with just as promptly and efficiently.

ExpertsLooking after a staff of fifty is, of course, more involved than managing the payroll of a small business, but it’s important to realise that even one-man-bands benefit from the knowledge that our experts are able to contribute with regard to the basics of minimum wage, interaction with dividends, PAYE and National Insurance. Add to that the confusion of ever-changing rules and legislation and it quickly makes sense to outsource to experts.

HR SupportLooking after what is, unarguably, your most precious resource deserves attention. For any business too small to need or afford a full-time HR professional, we’re here to step in with support that shows how to tick the necessary boxes that will contribute to getting the most out of your employees and to dealing with any issues that do crop up.

It’s a flexible service, without a binding contract, that lets you use as much or as little as you need. When the time comes to employ someone, we’ll help you with that too.

HR AuditIf you’re unclear which elements of HR relate to your business, the best place to start is with an HR audit.

Having an audit will help you understand what you need to do to comply with current legislation and help you understand what your business risks are when it comes to people.

Pension Auto EnrolmentStarted in October 2012 , this update in pension regulation will see a major change to employer’s responsibilities and costs over the next few years as it is rolled out. We are able to advise on procedures and direct you to one of a numberof independent advisors to ensure you stay compliant with the new regulations.
