Making clunky, time-consuming payroll processes a thing of the past, business advisory and accountancy group, Champion Accountants, has launched a fully digitalised payroll service.
Leveraging world-leading payroll technology, Champion’s innovative new service combines the efficiency of user-friendly payroll platform BrightPay with the reliability of the payment portal Modulr.
With ongoing support by Champion’s expert payroll team, the two award-winning systems are combined to dramatically reduce manual payroll-related workload.
BrightPay’s straightforward interface provides businesses and their employees clarity and functionality across payroll information and payslips. Meanwhile, Modulr links directly with business accounts to collect outgoing funds safely and securely, enabling businesses to initiate payment runs and make HMRC payments in as little as 90 seconds directly from the software.
By removing the need for manual data entry and reconciliation, BrightPay and Modulr eliminate payroll errors. Plus, they integrate with Xero, QuickBooks and other accountancy platforms for a seamless user experience.
The state-of-the-art service allows businesses of all sizes to complete the payroll process quickly and hassle-free. Businesses retain full control and can make changes at any time, from updating employee hours to awarding performance-related bonuses.
Champion’s objective is to save businesses time, money and stress, while bolstering satisfaction among their employees. Since the roll-out began, feedback from Champion clients has been hugely positive.
Toby Graemer, commercial director at Martin’s Craft Bakery, comments: “When our external payroll consultant retired, we turned to Champion, who had already impressed us with their work on our statutory accounts for years. Moving our payroll function to them was a no-brainer, and the transition was seamless. With 250 employees across 30 locations, we needed a team we could trust. Champion’s payroll team exceeded our expectations, responding promptly to our queries and suggesting improvements that maximised our use of the payroll platform. Their professionalism and expertise made the whole process incredibly smooth.”
Champion, headquartered in Manchester and with additional practices in Blackpool, Chester, and Preston, has appointed two joint payroll heads, Danielle Molyneux and Stacey Daynes, to spearhead the new service’s roll-out and support new clients through the onboarding process.
Clients can expect a full-service payroll experience, including PAYE registration, payroll set-up and operation, payslips, NI and tax analysis for every pay period, HMRC payments, generating P45s and P60s, statutory sick and maternity pay calculation, tax credit and student loan calculations, workplace pensions and auto-enrolment, and more.
Danielle Molyneux, joint head of payroll, says: “For a business in which payroll is handled in-house, either by one person soon to retire or an overloaded HR department, outsourcing offers an affordable, efficient solution. Our new fully digitalised system delivers on speed and reliability, giving employers absolute peace of mind that their employees will always get paid accurately and on time.”
Stacey Daynes, joint head of payroll, says: “We are so proud of the service, bringing in the latest payroll technologies. These are trusted platforms, which are fully regulated and secure. Not only does the new process take away manual admin, but it also gives full oversight and control. We can already see the difference this service is making to our clients and their businesses.”
