Payroll is no longer just about processing payments.

It’s about driving strategy, compliance, and employee experience. In this episode of The Payroll Podcast, host Nick Day sits down with Richard George, Director of Education at The Payroll Centre, to break down the future of payrolling benefits and what payroll professionals must do to prepare for the mandatory changes coming by 2027.

Discover how payroll has shifted from a back-office function to a seat at the boardroom table, why salary sacrifice schemes and real-time Class 1A NIC reporting are reshaping payroll strategy, and what steps you should take now to avoid last-minute chaos.

Whether you lead a global payroll team or are just starting your career, this conversation will help you stay ahead of industry changes, reduce risk, and position yourself as a strategic payroll leader.
