Running a club is a labour of love, usually squeezed in around everything else by volunteers. The last thing a committee needs is to worry about whether the payroll is right and whether the club is on the wrong side of HMRC. That is where we come in.
Why clubs use a payroll bureau
Clubs have a few quirks that make payroll trickier than people expect. Committees and treasurers change, often every year, so knowledge walks out of the door. Bar and function staff are frequently casual, part-time or seasonal, with hours that vary week to week. A steward may live on the premises with accommodation to account for. And like any employer, a club has to operate PAYE, file Real Time Information with HMRC every payday, and meet its auto-enrolment pension duties.
Handing payroll to us gives a club continuity and confidence. It does not matter who is treasurer this year, because the payroll simply carries on, run by people who have done it for clubs for years.
What we handle for your club
- Weekly, fortnightly or monthly pay for stewards, bar and function staff.
- Casual and variable-hours staff calculated correctly each run.
- PAYE, National Insurance and any deductions worked out and reported.
- RTI filed with HMRC on or before every payday.
- Auto-enrolment assessed and your workplace pension administered.
- Payslips issued and P45s and P60s produced.
- Payslips, P45s, P60s and reports produced and sent to you each pay period, so you can pay your team.
- A named contact who answers the phone and explains things plainly.
Committee changing over? We make handovers painless. A new treasurer can pick up where the last one left off, because the payroll never depended on them in the first place.
