This is my last message to you as chair before Clare Warrington takes over from April onwards, for which I wish her well. To this end, it’s quite fitting that the focus of this issue is on payroll careers. My own payroll career has been quite diverse and has taken me around the UK and overseas, meeting a variety of different organisations and payroll professionals.
I believe anyone in payroll should know how to calculate tax, National Insurance contributions and statutory payments manually. They can build upon this for their chosen career direction, and there’s now a greater choice of Level 3 learning to start from. The direction of your payroll career will determine the direction of your learning. When you consider that every organisation in every industry, regardless of how big or small it is, is required to pay its employees, it’s not surprising that a payroll professional’s career can be exciting, varied and far-reaching. Careers are also evolving with the rapid growth of robotics, changing the way we work. You could be in a team processing payroll or leading a team. Or, you could be a payroll strategist, data analyst, implementation consultant, director of payroll or product developer. If you’re in your dream job, have advice for newcomers to the profession or have had a varied payroll career path you would be happy to share, please do contact us.

message Here we are, well into the new year – time as usual rapidly flying by, approaching yet another tax year end. I hope all is in hand, there are no reconciliation issues for you and all goes smoothly. We recently held our trainers’ day, which we normally host annually for all our trainers. They deliver training the depth and breadth of the country on many educational and practical topics. Led by Jill Smith (head of operations) and Fiona Smith (training manager), the trainers’ day was a resounding success. CIPP trainers came together online to share best practice, network and hear an update from policy lead, Samantha O’Sullivan. Sam gave some fantastic and timely insights into all the latest changes for payroll professionals going into the next tax year. Networking online can be difficult, but the team enjoyed getting to know each other (over Teams), while enjoying the hampers that were delivered to their homes. The sessions provided some great insights through continuous professional development on how we can improve our courses and delegate experiences going into the new year. The session was so well received by attendees that we aim to organise and deliver another online event for trainers later in the year. With the working landscape so changed (office / working from home / hybrid), the challenges around the need to adapt and be flexible in a marketplace was discussed. Many organisations and individuals want greater use of flexibility and technology in how we deliver training. It was lovely to see the passion and desire to educate come across so strongly. My personal thanks also to all the trainers who work with the CIPP. Their efforts, knowledge and professionalism on behalf of the CIPP is really appreciated. And, as I say every year, we’re once again in budget territory. After last year’s tumultuous political events, I’m sure that into the next financial year there will be changes to enact, though hopefully in a calmer way than last year.
