For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), managing payroll internally can quickly become a costly, time-consuming function that offers little return. Whether you’re growing your team or simply trying to remain compliant and efficient, internal payroll can limit your capacity to focus on core business objectives.
Outsourcing your payroll to a specialist provider like Qualitas offers a more efficient, reliable and scalable solution. It reduces operational pressure, enhances employee satisfaction, and helps SMEs stay fully aligned with changing HMRC guidelines and legislation.
Reclaim Time and Resources
One of the most common frustrations we hear from SME business leaders is the amount of time spent on payroll each month. From calculating pay to ensuring compliance, it’s a process that pulls your internal team away from higher-value work.
Outsourcing payroll to Qualitas allows you to reallocate resources, reduce reliance on internal staff, and free up time to focus on growing your business. Our fully-managed service covers all payroll tasks, including RTI submissions, auto-enrolment, P60s, P11Ds and more.
Cut Payroll Costs Without Cutting Corners
Maintaining an in-house payroll team comes with overheads, including staffing, training, software, and compliance risk. By outsourcing to Qualitas, SMEs can reduce these costs while still delivering a professional and accurate payroll service to their employees.
Our service is designed to be scalable and flexible. Whether you’re a 20-person firm or growing beyond 200 employees, our pricing model ensures you only pay for what you need.
A Better Experience for Your Employees
Payroll isn’t just a back-office function, it’s a key part of the employee experience. Errors, delays or miscommunications around pay can quickly lead to dissatisfaction, frustration and even staff turnover.
With Qualitas, employees receive accurate payslips on time, every time. We also provide secure online access to documents like P60s and payslips, and employers can upload documents directly to the payroll portal for easy distribution. This results in fewer payroll queries and higher satisfaction across your team.
Stay Protected with Full Legislative Compliance
Payroll legislation changes frequently, and non-compliance can result in fines or HMRC scrutiny. Our expert team keeps your payroll fully up to date with all relevant legislation, from national insurance and PAYE thresholds to auto-enrolment rules and minimum wage updates.
We act as your compliance partner, ensuring your payroll remains accurate and aligned with current requirements. We also manage tax year-end processes, reporting, and support with HMRC queries, taking the pressure off your internal teams.
Dedicated Support, Every Step of the Way
Unlike other providers, Qualitas offers every client a dedicated account manager who understands your business. We don’t use ticketing systems or call queues. You’ll deal with the same person each month, someone who knows your payroll and is there to support you directly.
We also offer free setup and onboarding, making it easy to get started and ensuring a smooth transition from your current process.
