Outsource Payroll Recommendations

Didn't find your answer?

Good Morning,

We currently have our accounting firm handle all aspects of our payroll.

After getting a breakdown of their fees it seems the fee they are charging for this work is quite high compared to outsourcing it to payroll provider.

I was hoping to get some recommenadtions please - we are a company of between 13-20 staff. 

Many thanks

That's quite a small payroll, would you consider taking it in-house? It would save you quite a lot of money over time and you maintain full control.
There are so many fantastic payroll systems out there that are very inexpensive and easy to use. BrightPay and Moneysoft to name but a few.
Best of luck!

As you're not in education (I assume?) I can't recommend any relevant organisations but I can tell you that having used several in that sector a price of about £3.10 per person per payslip (monthly) was the going rate. This included all HMRC returns and the quite complex pension scheme reporting in education - so you might get it cheaper than that

Running a small payroll bureau I would be charging approx £100 per month to include AE. BUT this would be higher should there be a high staff turnover as in catering trade etc. As to running it yourself - why bother. It's a bureaucratic hassle. As a bureau the expertise is there to do a competent job.

£100 per month. Wow. We are an absolute bargain by comparison.
