“Having historically managed payroll in house, we recognised that our business growth, and the introduction of Auto Enrolment, meant that it was time to look for external expertise. We were lucky enough to find Cornwall Payroll who have been brilliant and look after us incredibly well. They provide a very cost effective and customer focused payroll solution and nothing is too much trouble for them. I would unreservedly recommend them.”

“The payroll responsibility for our business has been in the hands of Cornwall Payroll Bureau since we opened our doors in July 2019. Their assistance, patience and expertise has helped us steer our business through the initial stages of opening a hospitality business, through the fraught times of the COVID pandemic with its lockdown, restrictions, ever changing rules and of course furlough This has been a rollercoaster of a ride and at each step along the way, Tim, Jo and their team have held our hands and offered their vital support to help us to be here and open for business today. Thank you so much. ”
