Barnett Ravenscroft have our own bespoke payroll team.
This team is responsible for preparing our client’s payroll requirements including preparation of monthly and weekly payslips, preparation of the associated payroll, P32’s, RTI submissions and associated HMRC requirements etc. and preparation of all pension calculations and reports required.
With auto-enrolment and pension procedures becoming more cumbersome, along with the inclusion of RTI (Real Time Information), a number of our clients have moved from preparing their own payroll to using our specialised team. It also negates the need for clients to have their own individual software which has become more costly over the years.
If you would like a quote to transfer your payroll to Barnett Ravenscroft, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
