Payroll your team
can rely on, every month.

RTI is HMRC's system requiring employers to report PAYE information — salary, tax, and National Insurance — every time they pay an employee, rather than annually. RTI submissions must be made on or before each payday. We handle all RTI submissions as part of our payroll service, ensuring you are always compliant.

Under auto-enrolment, you must automatically enrol eligible employees (aged 22 to State Pension age, earning over £10,000 per year) into a qualifying workplace pension scheme. Minimum contributions are 3% employer and 5% employee of qualifying earnings. You must also re-enrol employees every three years. We manage the pension administration — contribution calculations, communications, and scheme reporting.

A P60 is an annual summary of an employee's pay and deductions issued at the end of the tax year to all employees still employed. A P45 is issued when an employee leaves, showing their pay and tax to date. A P11D reports expenses and benefits (such as company cars or private medical insurance) not put through payroll. We produce all three as part of our payroll service.

Yes — and most do. The standard approach for director-shareholders is to pay a small salary (typically at or around the National Insurance secondary threshold of £9,100) and take additional income as dividends. This structure minimises both income tax and NIC. We calculate the optimal salary level for your circumstances and process the payroll accordingly.

SSP and SMP are calculated according to HMRC's statutory formulas and included in the regular payroll run. We calculate entitlements, process the payments, and advise on employer reclaim options where eligible. We also handle Statutory Paternity Pay and Shared Parental Pay.

Typically we need: a list of any new starters or leavers, any changes to employee hours or salaries, details of any bonuses or one-off payments, any employee absences affecting pay (sick leave, maternity etc). We send a simple monthly checklist. Once we have everything, payslips are produced and RTI submissions made on time.
