Payright is PwC’s UK payroll centre of excellence. We provide an unrivalled range of payroll
services to some of the worlds leading organisations. Our team of highly experienced payroll
professionals share their thinking, experience and fresh perspectives to deliver exceptional
service to over 350 payroll clients every month.
With over 18,000 partners and staff in the UK we
have immediate access to a large network of payroll,
HR, tax and global mobility specialists.
Size in itself is not important to us.
What is important is the leverage it gives us for the
benefit of our clients. This means that we have
greater strength in depth and a range of experts to
call upon to advise and support you.
As payroll industry leaders we offer regular insight
and ensure your payroll is operating in compliance
with the latest legislation.
Our team is already in place and ready to
commence. We have a team of over 30 payroll
specialists in the UK, and all are highly trained,
qualified and experienced professionals.
You will be allocated a designated payroll
professional to manage your account, and an
operations manager to oversee quality and
responsiveness.
This combined with good continuity of knowledge
and experience of operating similar payrolls,
will help deliver the smooth efficient service
you demand.
Your payroll transition to PwC will be meticulously
planned and precisely executed. We have a
proven methodology for payroll transitions having
managed over 200 implementations during the
last 24 months.
Our tailored and flexible approach has been
developed to save you time and increase efficiencies
through streamlined processes.
We implement robust controls and processes to
focus on the areas of key risk and judgement when
operating our payrolls. This will ensure that any
issues are identified early and resolved
immediately.
We have designed processes that automate and
simplify the payroll activity wherever possible.
Central to this is PwC’s use of leading
payroll systems.
We use ‘best of breed’ 3rd party payroll systems.
Star Payroll Professional is used by all the big 4
and approximately 60% of the 2nd tier of
professional advisors.
We use PwC’s workflow management tool
‘Encompass’ to monitor the progress of all our
payrolls, ensuring your employees are paid on time
every time.
We provide a personal, tailored
payroll service to every client, to
help them address their
compliance needs
All payrolls are operated in
accordance with PwC’s standard
operating procedures and payroll
procedures
Our payroll service has a Business
Continuity Plan which is tested
bi-annually. The most recent
successful test was Nov 2014

What our clients are saying:
Since we first set up a branch office in the UK in 2007, we have been
using PwC Payroll Services. They have been and continue to be a
super-efficient single point solution for us.
– Laser equipment manufacturer
In addition to finding PwC staff professional and responsive, I also
appreciate how approachable they are and my friendly interactions with
them. We frequently make last-minute or ad hoc requests and PwC are
always flexible in this regard.
– European property management company
I am happy with the way our payroll is managed by PwC with the timely
production of information, the clear reports provided and the helpful
advice. We have historically used PwC for this payroll as there was no
payroll function at the Group office, the cost was reasonable and the
information was deemed too sensitive to pass through other
subsidiaries of our group.
– Heating and Renewable Energy Group
We are very happy with your service in general. The monthly reminder
if there are changes to the payroll is very helpful. The answers and
explanations to my questions are always detailed and well
understandable. For us, being located in Switzerland, it is very
important to have a specialist in the UK to deal with the payroll to make
sure that we meet all the legal requirements.
– Swiss wealth management fund
