WHO THIS IS FOR
If your payroll hasn't been independently audited, it probably has errors.
Most NZ businesses run payroll without anyone checking it's actually correct. The Holidays Act is notoriously complex, software defaults aren't always compliant, and the errors accumulate quietly — until they don't.
Payroll Consult works with small and medium NZ businesses across all industries — typically 5 to 500 staff — where payroll is run by someone without a formal payroll background.
✓ Businesses that have never had their payroll independently audited
✓ Businesses that recently changed payroll software or payroll staff
✓ Businesses preparing for a sale, restructure, or merger
✓ Bookkeepers and accountants managing payroll for clients
✓ Businesses that received an IRD query or employee complaint
✓ Businesses implementing Employment Hero for the first time

MEET KARYN
The only NZ Payroll Specialist you'll deal with

Managing payroll is more than just entering numbers on a spreadsheet and hitting “run payroll”.
