Payroll excellence

We’ll spend time understanding your organisation and operation before playing back our insights to align on the as-is strengths and challenges. We’ll then work with you to define your ambition, leaning on our extensive experience and industry insights to bring best practice and options to the table before bringing all of that together, coupling the challenges with where you need to get to and providing a realistic strategy to get there including thorough roadmap factoring all in-flight and planned initiatives

Selecting a new partner is more than a tick-box exercise. Our team will support you in finding the right partner for your organisation, we can build and lead the whole process for you, or support your process with our expertise and recommendations. From requirements definition, through to shortlisting, engagement and demo’s, selection, and implementation planning, we can support you or lead through the process.

Often an afterthought in payroll transformation, we recognise the importance of robust change management in achieving your goals. If you have a project team or are using your own resources to implement your changes we can own the change management of your programme, owning engagement, communication, success measures, or any part of programme governance.

It is increasingly common that payroll teams, particularly when global and at scale, have expanded or become reactive over time, impacted by frequent and/or poorly embedded change. Our team can assess the efficiency, cost, and suitability of your current payroll operating model and provide you with recommendations to achieve best-practice. We will factor the broader landscape, from employee experience through to key impacted functions such as HR, Finance and Reward, and provide you with an assessment and recommendations for the future.

Often the key input for the Payroll team, and the only frequent interaction an employee may have with their organisation. Our team have extensive experience with market-leading solutions and processes and can help you assess, select, implement, optimise, or provide a strategy to ensure you get the most from your workfoce management and time and attendance tools and processes.

Sometimes it is just about making the most of what you have, or getting more for less. Our team can lean on their extensive operational experience to help you optimise your current technology, operating model, or processes. We’ll embed ourselves into your payroll team to fully understand current processes and issues, provide recommendations and options, and help you optimise what you have. We’ll ensure effective change management, mindset shift, and communication are adopted so your improvements aren’t lost when we leave.

One of the biggest hurdles to enhancing your payroll function can be getting buy-in. Our team are experts in ensuring the benefits of investing in payroll are understood. It is more than numbers and headcount. Investing in your payroll function reduces risk, benefits employee experience, morale, and brings benefits across other key functions such as HR, Finance, Reward and IT. We’ll spend time understanding the current issues and opportunities, assessing any cost benefits in line with traditional business case approaches, and ensure your case for change is robust and strong enough to get the investment you need.
