How much time will I need to spend on the set up? One of our Project Managers will look after the set up of your payroll and even converse with your previous provider to obtain the data needed. So with this in mind and depending on the size of your payroll, you will need to set a little extra time aside to review the new payroll to make sure you are happy.

How much notice do we need to give you? The more notice you are able to give the better as we can prepare in advance of the first pay date. However sometimes this isn’t always possible, but we are able to set your payroll up comfortably with 1 months notice.
