Welcome to Pay Academy

We manage payroll and pensions solutions for small and not so small employers in the UK. What service are you after?

Payroll

We offer a complete managed payroll solution for employers large and small. We are a small team of payroll experts offering a bespoke service for payrolls ranging from 1 to 1001 employees from our Derby office. We handle all aspects of statutory deductions and payments, AEOs, student loans, holiday accruals, auto tax code updates and RTI submissions. We have a BACS solution which allows us to settle payments directly from your account to your employees’. We report in PDF and/or Excel – no logging on to a cloud, no excessive reporting or pages of superfluous data. Simple, straightforward reporting tailored to your accounting and reporting needs. We charge per payslip so our fees are purely volume-driven – no ticking clock. You can pick our brains as often as you choose.

Pension

The introduction of the auto-enrolment workplace pension has created additional responsibilities for keeping your employer pension portal up to date. Pension portals vary depending on the provider but in all cases information has to flow both to and from the pension’s provider. We are now managing nearly a dozen different pension portals on behalf of many of our payroll clients. We can also register with The Pensions Regulator as your agent in order to update and manage your TPR compliance. So if you don’t want the headache of pension administration why not entrust it to the same people you trust with your payroll? Providers we currently work with: Aegon, Aviva, Legal & General, NEST, Peoples Pension, Royal London, Smart Pensions and Standard Life.

Petra Misiakova-Nettleship: Petra joined us from the big corporate world of Sainsbury’s payroll department where she had worked for many years. It has been a big change going from very big to - let’s face it - very small but she has never looked back (although she misses the staff discount)
