Global Payroll

Welcome a global workforce

Take control of your global operating model with a standardised, centralised payroll.

Your global payroll guide

Global payroll comes with global challenges, like legal, cultural and compliance issues. Whether you’re looking to streamline global payroll or move into new markets, our experts in 39 countries and more than 50 global delivery centres help you integrate and outsource it. We’ll ensure that your payroll stays accurate and compliant – whatever the size. 

Here's the challenge

Global payroll has a lot of moving parts

Your payroll team has a lot on their plate each month – salary management, benefits, holiday and sick pay. Now take those and magnify them on a global scale. Between keeping an eye on every system and staying compliant, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Finding the right outsourcing partner to help manage it all is key.

Here's how we solve it

One global payroll solution to manage them all

We provide a centrally managed payroll available in over 100 countries that simplifies HRIS and payroll integration, reduces IT complexity and creates visibility and responsiveness – think local payroll on a global scale.

Payroll experts next door

Having a global payroll manager that speaks your language, knows your laws and understands your challenges is critical, especially for fast-growing businesses. Our payroll experts have experience in over 100 countries, so you always have someone to rely on.  

Everyday innovation in global payroll

We regularly introduce new automation, artificial intelligence and robotics to improve quality and reduce costs for your business. We also deliver insights specific to you as well as lessons learnt from leading enterprises, so you can prove the value of payroll.
