Payroll is complex, and when issues arise, the consequences can be significant.

PENNI provides independent payroll audit services, delivering detailed payroll compliance reviews across your systems, processes and controls. We identify underpayments, overpayments and areas of payroll risk, helping you understand exactly where issues may exist.

We also support remediation and rectification, including risk quantification, back pay calculations and implementing the right controls to ensure issues are resolved and do not reoccur.

Our focus is to provide clarity, confidence and a clear path forward, so your payroll function is accurate, compliant and built for long-term success.

Implementing or upgrading payroll and workforce systems is complex, with multiple moving parts across systems, processes and people.

PENNI provides payroll project implementation support across all project streams, ensuring your payroll function is represented, structured and set up for success from day one. We work alongside internal teams and vendors to provide independent payroll assurance throughout the delivery lifecycle.

Our support spans planning, design, testing and delivery, including go-live readiness and transition to BAU, ensuring payroll accuracy and compliance are maintained at every stage.

We also bring deep experience across leading workforce management systems, including UKG and WorkDay, supporting organisations through implementations, upgrades and system optimisation.

Our focus is to deliver structured, well-governed projects that minimise risk and ensure a smooth, confident go-live.

A well-designed payroll operating model is critical to ensuring accuracy, efficiency and long-term compliance.

PENNI supports organisations in reviewing and optimising their payroll operating model, including team structure, processes, controls and ways of working. We assess how your payroll function is set up today, identifying gaps, inefficiencies and areas of risk.

Our approach focuses on building clear, structured processes and governance frameworks that support consistency, reduce manual effort and minimise errors. We work closely with teams to streamline workflows, improve system utilisation and ensure responsibilities are clearly defined across the payroll function.

Whether you are evolving your payroll function, preparing for system change or looking to improve performance, we help create scalable, sustainable models that support long-term success.

When payroll functions come under pressure, the impact can be immediate and significant. Errors, compliance risks, and overwhelmed teams can quickly escalate if not properly addressed.

PENNI provides Emergency Payroll Management support, deploying experienced payroll professionals into your business to stabilise, control and uplift your payroll function when it’s needed most.

We step in quickly to assess the current state of your payroll, identify critical issues and implement immediate controls to restore accuracy and confidence. From resolving backlogs and compliance concerns to supporting teams under strain, our focus is on regaining control and reducing risk.

Beyond short-term fixes, we work to strengthen processes, improve governance and set your payroll function up for stability moving forward. Once the function is operating effectively and sustainably, we transition out, leaving behind a more controlled, resilient payroll environment. 

Whether you’re facing unexpected gaps, system challenges or operational disruption, PENNI provides the expertise to step in, steady the function and get it back on track.

Strong payroll outcomes rely on knowledgeable, confident teams who understand both the technical and operational complexity of payroll.

PENNI provides targeted payroll training tailored to your specific payroll environment, systems and operating model. We work with organisations to upskill payroll teams, leaders and new starters, ensuring they have the knowledge and confidence to manage payroll accurately and compliantly.

We have supported a range of organisations through tailored training programs, helping teams strengthen capability, improve decision-making and better navigate day-to-day payroll challenges.

Our approach goes beyond one-off training sessions. We offer ongoing mentorship and support, building internal capability and creating teams that are equipped to manage complexity with confidence.
