Our Services

Setup and Compliance
Sterling Cooper establishes roles, pay cycles and allowances, then sets payroll deductions for each area based on up-to-date standards. Tax codes, National Insurance lists, and pension settings are aligned with initial data and historical records. RTI submissions, company records, and banking files are done and tested before making them official. We complete the setup with a compliance checklist, a control file, and named owners for all major steps.

Monthly Processing
We load hours, validate totals, and apply all statutory and voluntary deductions from pay. Payslips are issued through a secure portal, and summary packs go to finance for posting and cash planning. If a correction is needed, we adjust the next run and keep a clear audit trail.

Benefits and Pensions
We manage pension enrolment, opt-ins, and opt-outs, and we check status before pay-ins begin. When payroll benefits are paid, we set the necessary flags and report the totals within each cycle. If P11Ds are required, we prepare the year-end files and ensure values match payroll records.

Year-End Reporting
We prepare P60s for employees and P45s for leavers, and P11Ds where required. FPS and EPS files are submitted on set deadlines with reconciliations against payments to HMRC and tax deductions for payroll, so data remains in order. You also get a brief year-end review that lists enhancements for the coming payroll year.

Payroll Changes and Compliance
We deal with promotions, location changes, variable pay, and back pay with set timelines. Findings are recorded with actions and deadlines so compliance improves each quarter, and each change is checked against tax deductions for payroll to remain accurate.

Take the stress out of payroll by letting us handle every detail with accuracy, compliance, and care for your team.

FAQ Question

Frequently Asked Questions

What should a UK payslip include?

A payslip must show gross pay for the period, deductions from pay (tax, National Insurance, pensions, student loans, court orders), and the net amount paid. It should also state the pay period and method of payment. We add employer references and year-to-date figures for clarity.

How do you determine payroll deductions for each employee?

We determine payroll deductions using HMRC tax codes, NI categories, pension status, student loan plan, and any court orders. A fixed priority order is applied each run, and checks confirm that salary and deductions match contracts and policy before payslips are released.

How are tax codes and updates handled during the year?

We apply coding notices (P6/P9) as soon as HMRC issues them and adjust PAYE in the next cycle. Where backdating is required, the payslip shows the correction and the RTI file reflects the change so records stay aligned.

How do salary sacrifice and benefits affect tax deductions?

Salary sacrifice alters taxable pay and National Insurance, so tax deductions for payroll change accordingly. If benefits are payrolled, totals appear each period; if not, we prepare P11D at year end and reconcile values to payroll.

What happens if a payslip is wrong or an employee is over/underpaid?

We recalculate, issue a corrected payslip, and either adjust the next run or arrange an immediate payment or recovery. RTI is updated if needed, and a short note explains the fix so the error does not repeat.
