Why Choose Madison for Your Payroll?

Less Operational Cost

Outsourcing your payroll is a cost-effective alternative to an in-house team, eliminating the need for additional staff, software, and overheads. This allows your business to allocate resources more strategically.

Reduce Admin

Instead of spending time and resources on payroll processing, compliance monitoring, and ongoing system updates – we’ll take care of it all, so that you can focus on your core business activities instead.

Minimise Risk

Staying up-to-date with tax laws, holiday pay, and other regulations can be time-consuming and complicated. We’ll ensure that your business remains compliant, reducing legal and financial risk.

Increase Retention

Payroll mistakes can lead to dissatisfied employees (and potential legal issues). We ensure payments are accurate and on time, providing a consistent experience, and improving employee trust and retention.

Peace of Mind

Our experienced payroll team proactively stay on top of legislative changes, best practices, and complex requirements, so you can rest assured your payroll is seamless, low-risk, and expertly managed.

How it Works

Onboarding

You source the talent and supply their details, then we take care of onboarding them as a payroll-only temporary employee or contractor. If required, we can also complete reference and credit checks as additional Unbundled Services.

Timesheets and Payroll

Temporary staff or contractors submit online timesheets through our easy-to-use system, you approve them (in just a few clicks!), then we take care of invoices, payments, tax deductions, and any applicable statutory entitlements.
