Payroll

“We outsource our payroll function to Champion as such a role doesn’t warrant a full-time member of staff, plus we want the peace of mind that this critical role is being handled by an expert with the specialist knowledge and technical capability required. Whether we had 30 staff or 300, outsourcing key parts of your operations makes good business sense, as Champion’s payroll team are always on hand to advise and support as and when required, whether that’s onboarding new staff or changes to existing staff circumstances, which delivers a far more efficient and cost-effective function than employing someone internally.”

“Champion’s Preston team have supported The Royal British Legion for more than 50 years – long before the practice became part of Champion. They assist with our year-end accounts, attending our annual AGM and presenting to our members to act as a true extension of our charity.”

“Over the years, we have outsourced more critical functions to Champion, with them now handling our payroll. The lady who used to manage our wages left us a number of years ago and outsourcing this to Champion was a no brainer.”

“It’s rare to find an accountant who has a vested interest in what you do and that’s exactly why we’ve remained with Champion. Nothing is too much trouble. They’re just a phone call away and the level of service we’ve received has never wavered throughout all these years.”

“I’ve been working with Champion for a year and Stacey specifically for some months now. I feel I get a very personal service from Stacey. We work well together around each other’s monthly commitments and challenges in order to get my company’s payroll over the line. The Champion team is great at communicating with me and we are building a nice working relationship. Really appreciate your help!”

“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.”

“Foundation 92 has worked with Champion Accountants for over four years, benefiting from their full suite of services, including payroll, accounts, audits, management accounts, corporation tax, and bookkeeping. Initially introduced through a managing partner, Champion has been instrumental in supporting our development, adapting flexibly to our evolving needs as our organisation continues to grow.

“Their audit team is exceptional – professional, thorough, and highly effective – making our audit process seamless. The payroll team consistently demonstrates expertise and professionalism, with outstanding support across all aspects of their service.

Champion Accountants’ ability to grow with us and provide excellent connectivity to audit processes has been invaluable. I would absolutely recommend them to other organisations for their adaptability, expertise, and commitment to client success.”

“Our experience working with Champion Accountants’ payroll team has been overwhelmingly positive. As a charity supporting vulnerable individuals in the adult social care sector, accuracy and reliability in payroll are absolutely critical – and Champion delivers every time.
 
Since we began working with Champion over 18 months ago, the transition to their services has been smooth, and their support has made a significant impact. We deal with a complex payroll structure, including fixed-term and short-term contracts that often change, but Champion has stayed with us every step of the way, ensuring the process remains seamless and accurate.
 
Danielle, in particular, has been an incredible help. Her clear communication and commitment to building a strong working relationship with us make all the difference. Champion’s ethos and approach to supporting their clients truly stand out, and we always feel well-supported and valued.
 
We would 100% recommend Champion Accountants to any organisation looking for a reliable and communicative payroll partner. Their service has been invaluable to us!”

“I have been working with Champion Accountants since joining Seneca 15 years ago. As a small team, outsourcing payroll was a natural choice, and Champion has made the entire process seamless.
 
Danielle Molyneux and the payroll team feel like an extension of our own business. Their accuracy and efficiency mean payroll is always processed on time, and we’ve built a strong, trusted relationship over the years. From the outset, Danielle introduced a structured approach, ensuring complete transparency and accuracy – something that has been invaluable, especially given the multiple businesses within the Seneca group that require payroll management.
 
Beyond payroll, Champion also provides Audit and Accounts support through David Hardy and the Blackpool team. Their expertise, communication, and professionalism make them a fantastic partner to work with across various financial services.
 
During the challenges of Covid-19, when payroll regulations were constantly evolving, Champion’s team guided us through every step, ensuring compliance and continuity without disruption.
 
I would highly recommend Champion Accountants to any business looking for a payroll service that is punctual, accurate, and truly feels like part of your own team. Working with Danielle and the team has been a brilliant experience, and I have complete confidence in them.”
