Nottingham sits at the heart of the East Midlands, a city with a strong retail and distribution base, a busy professional services sector and thousands of small and medium-sized businesses that keep it moving. Every one of them with staff has a payroll to run. We look after that payroll for businesses across Nottingham, from our office in Pontypridd, South Wales, so paying your people is one less thing to think about.
The employers we run payroll for in Nottingham
Nottingham's economy has deep roots in retail and distribution. Its central location and excellent motorway links make it a natural home for warehousing and logistics, national retail names and the independent shops that fill the city centre and areas like Hockley and West Bridgford. Around them sits a thriving professional services community, with law firms, accountants, agencies and financial businesses, plus a growing digital and life sciences scene supported by the city's two universities.
That variety brings a real range of payroll needs. A distribution operation may run weekly pay with shift and overtime rates, a professional firm may pay salaried staff monthly with pensions and bonuses, and a retailer may manage part-time hours that shift with the seasons. We handle all of it, and the same goes for businesses across Derby, Mansfield and the wider East Midlands.
How remote, digital payroll works
You do not need a bureau in the city to get a genuinely personal service. Everything we do runs securely online. You send us hours, starters, leavers and any changes each pay period, and we process the run, and file your Real Time Information (RTI) with HMRC online on or before payday. We produce your payslips and reports and send them to you each pay period, ready for you to pay your staff. Payslips arrive through a secure online portal, so your team can view them wherever they are.
Remote does not mean faceless. You get a named contact who knows your account and your business, reachable by phone and email whenever you need them. Most Nottingham clients find that a dedicated person who picks up quickly beats a local office they rarely set foot in. We have run payroll for UK businesses since 2006, and much of our new work comes on the recommendation of clients we already look after.
What we handle for you
We take on the full payroll job so nothing bounces back to you. That means processing weekly, fortnightly, four-weekly or monthly pay runs; calculating tax, National Insurance, student loans and statutory pay such as sick, maternity and paternity; and filing RTI accurately with HMRC. We manage pension auto-enrolment and re-enrolment, upload contributions to your provider, and keep you compliant as rules and thresholds change.
We also produce clear payslips and P60s, handle P45s for leavers and P11Ds where needed, and take care of year-end for you. If you would rather hand the whole thing over, our outsourced payroll service does precisely that, with your dedicated contact running it end to end.
Transparent pricing and free switching
Our pricing is straightforward and honest. Payroll is one fixed price of £5 per employee, per month, plus VAT, with no long tie-ins and no hidden extras. You will know exactly what you are paying before you commit, and the fee covers processing, RTI filing, payslips and your named contact. You can see how it all works on our pricing page.
Switching to us is free and painless. We manage the move from your current provider or in-house system, transfer your year-to-date figures, and make sure nothing slips, whatever point in the tax year you join. As a CIPP-member bureau, ICAEW-affiliated and registered with the ICO for data protection, and with team members holding CIPP qualifications, your payroll and your people's data are handled with care.
