You can choose the level of support you need now, then add or remove elements as your team, pay frequency, or processes change. ## What the service covers A flexible package is built around how you pay people and what you want to keep in-house. Typical cover can include: - Payroll setup or tidy-up, including pay frequencies and pay codes - Running payroll each pay period and producing payslips - HMRC RTI submissions (FPS and, where needed, EPS) - Starters and leavers, including new starter details and leaving dates - Holiday pay, statutory payments, and deductions where applicable - Workplace pension support, including auto-enrolment duties and submissions - Payroll journals and reports for your bookkeeping - Year-end payroll tasks such as P60s and final submissions - Optional add-ons for director-only payrolls, irregular pay patterns, and multi-site teams ### Who this is for This service suits owner-managed businesses that want payroll done properly without spending evenings checking thresholds and deadlines. It is especially useful if you are hiring your first employee, moving from ad hoc payments to a regular payroll, or managing changes like pay rises, bonuses, or staff turnover. It also works well if you want predictable processes and clear cut-off dates each month. ### How delivery works You agree a package based on your pay schedule and what you need help with. We set payroll cut-offs, confirm what information you will send each period, then run payroll and share outputs for approval before pay day. After approval, submissions are filed and you receive payslips and reporting in a consistent format. ### Ongoing support and optimisation As your business changes, the package can be adjusted so you only pay for what you use. You get ongoing checks on payroll compliance points that often get missed, plus practical guidance on process improvements like standardising pay data and reducing last-minute changes. Over time, payroll becomes easier to manage, easier to approve, and less disruptive to your week.

The service is designed to flex as your team and payroll needs change. You can add support for items like pensions, starters and leavers, or additional pay runs, and remove elements you no longer need. What do you need from me each pay period? Usually you provide any changes since the last run, such as hours, overtime, bonuses, holiday, or salary changes, by an agreed cut-off time. If nothing changes, you simply confirm it is OK to proceed. Clear checklists help keep this quick. Do you handle HMRC RTI submissions? Yes. RTI submissions are completed as part of the payroll process, based on approved figures. This helps you stay compliant and avoids late filing issues. Can you support workplace pensions and auto-enrolment? Yes. Pension files and submissions can be included, along with ongoing assessment duties where needed. If your scheme or provider changes, the process can be updated without disrupting payroll. How quickly can you take over an existing payroll? Timing depends on how up to date your records are and where you are in the tax month. In most cases, takeover is planned around a clean cut-off so the next payroll run is accurate. A short onboarding step confirms current pay, deductions, and reporting.
