Payroll, CIS and Pension Specialists
Payroll that just runs. Every week. Every month.
Payroll is one of those jobs that has to be right every single time. People notice the moment something goes wrong — and HMRC notices the moment something is late. We take the whole thing off your hands and make sure it lands on time, every cycle.
WHAT WE CAN HELP WITH
What we run
Weekly, fortnightly, four-weekly and monthly payroll
Starters, leavers, P45s, P60s and student loan handling
Statutory pay calculations — SSP, SMP, SPP, ShPP, SAP
Holiday pay, overtime, bonuses and salary sacrifice arrangements
Director payroll, dividend planning support and benefits in kind
Real Time Information (RTI) submissions to HMRC
Year-end payroll, P11D preparation and P60 distribution
CIS — contractors and subcontractors
We run end-to-end CIS for construction businesses on both sides of the chain:
- Subcontractor verification with HMRC
- Monthly CIS deductions, statements and HMRC returns
- CIS suffered tracking and reclaim through payroll
- Domestic reverse charge VAT handling alongside CIS
Pensions and auto-enrolment
Auto-enrolment is now business as usual, but it still has to be done properly:
- Initial assessment and scheme setup with NEST, The People’s Pension, Smart Pension or your existing provider
- Monthly assessments, contribution calculations and uploads
- Cyclical re-enrolment, opt-in/opt-out handling and communications
- Three-yearly Declarations of Compliance
Software — Xero Payroll and BrightPay
Most of our clients run on Xero Payroll, where everything sits inside the same platform as their bookkeeping. For more complex payrolls — multiple pay schedules, larger teams, sector-specific quirks — we also run a sizeable book on BrightPay, which we have used for years and know in detail. The right software is whichever one fits your business; we will tell you straight which we recommend and why.
How it works
1. Send us your changes by an agreed cut-off each cycle
2. We process, check and send a draft for approval
3. Once approved, payslips go out, RTI is filed and pension contributions submitted
4. You get a clear monthly summary and the journal posted into Xero
