Payroll and HR Services

We support NHS providers with a full end-to-end Payroll service, partnering with some of the largest forward-thinking organisations to release valuable workforce efficiencies and operational costs. Our solutions mean NHS employees can focus on patient care, whilst closing the shortage gap, and NHS organisations have help recruiting, retaining and supporting their workforce to provide the highest standards of patient care.

Additionally, our services are ideal to help Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) realise time efficiencies and financial savings across their organisations, enabling interoperability through automation and robotics as a better use of technology, whilst reviewing and improving transactional processes that help the NHS go paperless. Our remote access, real-time, cloud-based service analytics provide interactive visualisations and business intelligence capabilities that add real and additional value.

We ensure that our clients have access to our people and expertise whilst also expecting a robust, resilient and accurate service. The strength of our own processes means delivering on performance and accuracy, setting a standardisation in service that delivers on both quality and value.

Key Benefits to NHS Organisations

Continuous Investment

The continuous investment in our platform and systems allows our clients to benefit from transformative  technology, without the requirement for significant, repeat capital investment in their own systems.

Significant Operational Savings

Significant operational savings are also realised through automated improvements to workforce processes and systems.

Workforce Efficiencies

By introducing more technology this also helps  the retention of employees by upskilling them and  making them more efficient in other areas.
 

Our fully-integrated and accurate way to manage the payroll needs of NHS organisations delivers savings on alternative services, using automated processes that free up individuals to manage more query-led tasks. Our remote, cloud-based business intelligence reporting helps form an efficient and effective service, delivering the best user experience, and optimising client ROI.

In full, these services include: HR transactional work; monthly, weekly and bank payrolls and payslip distribution; gross-to-net administration; reimbursement of travel, subsistence and expense claims; payroll reconciliation; payroll admin support - such as mortgage references and Child Maintenance Service (CMS) - as well as a full suite of digitalised reports and dashboards.
