Martyn Faulkner FCIPP 18 February 1951–27 August 2018 MARTYN STARTED his career in payroll as a junior at Stockport Council, moving on to Trafford Council as a team leader and later as a payroll manager. In 1992, he moved from local government to the private sector, where he worked for Hartshead Limited to set up a payroll bureau, moving to Aon in 1998 as UK payroll manager. In 2003, Martyn started his own consultancy company, which gave him the opportunity to work with a variety of his clients until retirement in 2016.
Martyn was a member of the Association of Payroll and Superannuation Administrators (APSA) from 1982, later becoming a fellow. APSA merged with the Institute of British Payroll Managers in 1998 which is now the Chartered Institute of Payroll Professionals (CIPP). From those early days Martyn had been involved in supporting and developing many members and students, taking roles as an author for examinations, tutor, examiner and a trainer. In addition to his work for the CIPP, Martyn was one of the inaugural committee members of the Electronic Exchange with Government User Network, as well as having been a member of various HMRC and Department of Social Security forums during his career. A vocal member of the payroll community, Martyn was heavily involved in discussions and debates on some of the recent changes to our profession, such as automatic enrolment and real time information. Martyn was a real advocate and ambassador for the payroll profession, and influenced change and development within the profession, whether through his involvement in government consultations or his work with the CIPP to develop the skills and knowledge of payroll professionals throughout their careers. Martyn had taken retirement in 2016 to enjoy time with his family, and sadly passed away on 27 August 2018. His presence within the payroll community will be missed.
