London, 18 August, 2022: Sage, the leader in accounting, financial, HR and payroll technology for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), has launched Sage People Payroll in the UK and the US.
The innovative cloud-based HR and payroll solution is designed to help businesses work smarter, scale and grow, and offer the best experience to their employees. It enables increased collaboration and efficiencies between HR and payroll, delivering significant cost and time savings.
“Launching Sage People Payroll in the UK and the US is an important milestone for us, delivering on our strategic ambition of being the trusted network for an integrated Payroll and HR solution for mid-sized businesses,” says Jonathan Goldsmith, Head of HR and Payroll at Sage.
“Running payroll is not just clicking a button. Due to recent regulatory changes, complexities added by the gig economy, and the global pandemic, it has become one of the most complex business operations from a back-office perspective. It’s the engine room of a business that needs to run seamlessly on a tight schedule. Our new software has been designed to empower teams to collaborate efficiently, quickly and accurately, enabling them to boost productivity and enhance employees’ satisfaction.”
In the UK with Sage People Payroll, businesses will be able to benefit from:
Sage People Payroll is powered by Brain Payroll in the UK, and another third party in the US, offering enhanced payroll capabilities and enabling SMBs to complete a secure, compliant and accurate payroll process in a matter of minutes.
James Proctor, Director of Professional and Managed Services at Phase 3, customer and Sage Partner, said: “Payroll is a critical operational area of any business, helping to provide trusted payments that keep personal finances ticking over.
“Payroll teams can make better and quicker decisions using the power of great technology. As a result, late or inaccurate payments can become a thing of the past, supporting employee wellbeing and maintaining a vital bond of trust between employer and employee.”
Raxit Shah, Director of Brain Payroll UK said: "Payroll is about people not numbers; employees getting paid correctly and on time and HR teams saving time to spend on items that enhance the employee journey are critical to business success. As a technology provider, we are highly motivated to increase the efficiency of our system users.
“We do that by providing a fully cloud-based payroll system which has both the functional depth and the processing capacity to deal with the volume and complexities of multiple large payrolls together.”
