# Be Payroll

Aimie Deniz ACIPP, payroll officer at FrictionMarketing Company Limited discusses why she became, and continues to be, amember of the CIPP

Why did you choose to become a CIPP member? I was already a member of the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) when I attended a joint CIPP and AAT hot topic event in Birmingham in 2018. The event was extremely useful and gave me a huge insight into new areas of payroll. How has membership helped you in your career? I’ve found that the support and guidance from the CIPP has been crucial, especially as I’m a sole payroll professional. Can you describe your payroll journey to us so far? I ‘fell into’ payroll (like most people), through different accounts roles. I found payroll processing in previous roles fairly simple. That is, until I joined a manufacturing company when I quickly realised it was much more complex. What course(s) have you studied or are you currently studying? I’m currently in my final year of studying the CIPP Foundation Degree in Payroll Management.

How would you describe your experience of studying with the CIPP? As a working mum, I’ve found it easier than I anticipated. I think this is partly due to the pandemic, as workshops and tutorials have been online, but also because it’s extremely well organised and structured. Why was it/is it important to you to gain this qualification or training course? Payroll is a key function in every organisation, so by gaining the qualification, I hope it will promote the importance of the profession and of payrollers. How do you feel about working in payroll and what does it mean to you? The best part of working in payroll for me is the job satisfaction. n
