Are you already outsourcing your payroll?
If you have already outsourced your payroll, you hopefully won’t need us to convince you that it’s a great idea.
You know that it saves you time, makes financial sense and relieves you of the administrative burden that payroll has now become. Now that Auto Enrolment is well established, the fear of non-compliance and late or erroneous returns are more significant than ever. It’s for these reasons that outsourcing your payroll now makes more sense than ever.
All of that said, we’re only too aware that not all payroll outsourcing relationships are the same. Only too often, new clients come to us because they’re unhappy with the service previously provided by their payroll company. The sad thing is, these clients have typically waited until they (pretty much) can’t take any more before making the move.
When we have a new client who’s switched to us, we make a point of asking them what the issues were and more importantly why they didn’t move sooner?
The main issues we hear about are:
“I just seem to spend all my time on the phone to call centres – I never get to speak to the same person twice.”
“Mistakes are being made, and no-one will sort them out.”
“It’s costing far more than I thought – there are so many hidden extras.”
“They don’t seem to care about my business – we’re just another account amongst hundreds.”
If this sounds familiar to you, perhaps it’s time to be thinking again about your payroll outsourcing solution?
Although you’ve chosen a payroll services provider once, choosing a new and better outsourcing solution is a hard task because there are so many to choose from, plus the fact you’ve been disappointed once already. Making sure you get the service you need, want and deserve this time around isn’t an easy task.

Let us make sure your payroll commitments to your employees and to HMRC are met accurately and on time, every time.
