Payroll Outsourcing: Introducing IRIS Payroll Services  

The old payroll saying of ‘no feedback is good feedback’ comes about because people expect their pay to land in their bank account on time with no hassle. 

However, this takes a great deal of specialist knowledge around payroll processes and data security as well as legislation and compliance.  

This is why many businesses look to payroll outsourcing professionals, such as IRIS, who can take this critical process off their hands.

To better support those businesses looking to outsource their payroll, we’ve launched our new IRIS Payroll Services offering, which unifies the various bureaus we’ve acquired over the years to further streamline operations and improve service quality.

IRIS Payroll Services: building upon a solid foundation

IRIS Payroll Services is now a single service which consolidates the brilliant bureaus we have acquired over the years, including:

• FMP Global (UK only)
• Payplus
• APS Global
• Every Payroll Services
• Paycheck Plus (UK only)
• Bridgehead, also known as Harper Morris Payroll
• Bishop Fleming Payroll Service Bureau

Our new, unified offering aims to help businesses better navigate complex regulatory requirements, cost pressures and the drive for operational efficiency.

Offering the best possible customer experience

For those seeking UK outsourced payroll, the unification of our bureaus is set to bring numerous advantages for customers, such as:

• Improved efficiency: streamlined operations improve service quality and offer a consistent experience.
• Enhanced expertise: compiling all knowledge and expertise into a single service enables us to offer a more tailored solution to better service specific customer needs and niche sectors, such as hospitality, education and corporate.
• Modern technology: unification under a single brand ensures the latest technology is always in use, offering all customers access to a modern, cloud-based portal that provides greater payroll visibility.
• Simplified experience: offering a single, unified brand simplifies the experience for customers looking to outsource their payroll, removing the confusion around which bureau is best for them.
• Robust leadership: the launch of IRIS Payroll Services also introduces a robust new leadership team to help further advance commitment to customer success.

In with the new, out with the old

The launch of IRIS Payroll Services marks the next step in our payroll offering.
