NEW payroll and HR service for employers!

New payroll and HR service launches in Bucks and Berks

James Cowper’s JC Payroll and myHRdept have teamed up to become a major player in the SME payroll and HR market and one of the few to provide fully outsourced payroll and HR.

Based in Berkshire, JC Payroll operate a bureau-style full service payroll team with 20 employees, whilst myHRdept’s neighbouring Buckinghamshire operation employs 16 HR professionals, and have provided HR outsourced support for more than 20 years.

James Cowper Partners take strategic decision to add HR to their suite of B2B services

Nick Butler, the Partner responsible for the payroll team said “Last year the Partners took a strategic decision to offer HR services to our employer-clients and, following more than a decade of informal collaboration with myHRdept, we are delighted to formally announce the launch of JCHR.”

Bill Larke, founder of myHRdept and formerly responsible for HR for Coca-Cola’s UK manufacturing operations added “JCHR’s payroll and HR services are an invaluable asset for any SME employer, and as we operated similar boutique service delivery models, a formal collaboration made perfect sense and, like all good partnerships, JCHR is built on years of trust.

JCHR amongst the first to offer full service payroll and HR

Many payroll providers and accountancy practices claim to provide HR, but only really scratch the surface – JCHR is the real deal, with fully staffed HR and payroll teams servicing SME employers across sectors.”

JC Payroll and myHRdept each have a reputation for excellent customer service and HR Operations Director Jessica Whelan believes that JCHR offers a refreshingly capable alternative for SME employers. “Although we have larger clients, some transitioning between outsourced and internal payroll and HR, outsourcing makes particular sense for SMEs and is a viable and cost effective solution for virtually any employer with less than 100 staff. 

Unfortunately many, in particular, HR solutions for SME employers, are low quality reactive call-centre-type services, far different to what JCHR offer. We don’t tie clients into long term contracts, our clients chose to stay with us because they value what we do.”

Many SMEs yet to realise savings from outsourcing payroll and HR 

Nick Butler believes that many SME employers are yet to take advantage of the savings outsourcing can bring: 

“We often see SME employers, even those with less than 100 staff, employing their own HR and payroll team. Of course they need to carefully choose who to outsource to, but a high quality provider like JCHR can save tens of thousands and increase the quality of HR and payroll – outsourcing HR and payroll makes obvious sense.”
