Payroll services designed to make payday easier.

Australian Payroll Hub provides specialist payroll support for small and medium Australian businesses. From ongoing payroll processing to one-off payroll clean-up support — we help make payroll clearer, more accurate and easier to manage.

Core services

Ongoing payroll support and specialist reviews.

  • Weekly, fortnightly and monthly pay cycles
  • Pay run processing and review

  • Employee and pay category review
  • Leave entitlement setup check
  • Superannuation settings review
  • Payroll platform configuration

Payroll Accuracy Check

A practical review to identify payroll setup issues, process gaps and areas needing attention. Suitable for businesses that want confidence in their current payroll.

  • Pay rate and award compliance review
  • Leave balance accuracy check
  • Super calculation review

  • Process improvement recommendations

Additional support

Specialist payroll support for every situation.

Beyond ongoing payroll processing, we provide targeted support for specific payroll tasks — from new starter onboarding to termination payments, leave checking and payroll reporting.

New Starter Support

Accurate onboarding of new employees into your payroll system is essential for getting payroll right from day one. We handle the setup so new starters are paid correctly from their first pay run.

  • TFN declaration and super fund setup
  • Pay rate and classification configuration
  • Leave entitlement setup and verification
  • STP new employee reporting
  • Payroll system record creation

Termination Payment Support

Termination payments are one of the most complex areas of Australian payroll. We ensure final pay is calculated correctly, entitlements are paid in full and all reporting obligations are met.

  • Final pay calculation and review
  • Unused annual and long service leave payout
  • Redundancy and notice period entitlements
  • STP termination reporting
  • Payroll system record finalisation

Leave and Super Checking

Leave balances and superannuation are two of the most common sources of payroll errors. We review both each pay cycle to help ensure your employees are accruing and receiving their correct entitlements.

  • Annual and personal leave balance review
  • Long service leave accrual checking
  • Superannuation calculation verification
  • Super fund and rate accuracy check
  • Leave loading and entitlement review

Payday Super Support

Payday Super can create extra pressure for businesses that are used to paying super quarterly. We help review your payroll process, pay cycle and super payment workflow so super payments can be managed more clearly and consistently with each pay run.

  • Pay cycle and super payment workflow review
  • Super payment timing check
  • Payroll process review for Payday Super
  • Super calculation and liability checking
  • Practical recommendations to improve your payroll and super payment process

Contractor Payment Administration

Managing contractor payments alongside employee payroll requires careful attention to classification, record-keeping and reporting. We support businesses to handle contractor payments correctly and consistently.

  • Contractor payment processing support
  • ABN and tax withholding verification
  • Contractor record-keeping and documentation
  • Taxable payments annual report (TPAR) support
  • Contractor vs employee classification guidance

Payroll Reporting

Clear, practical payroll reports after every pay run give you the information you need to manage your business — without having to dig through your payroll system yourself.

  • Pay run summary report after each cycle
  • Leave balance and accrual reports
  • Superannuation liability reports
  • Payroll cost and headcount summaries
  • Custom reports on request

Payroll Process Improvement

Many payroll errors are caused by poor processes rather than individual mistakes. We review your current payroll processes and recommend practical improvements to reduce errors, save time and build a more reliable payroll function.

  • End-to-end payroll process review
  • Error and risk identification
  • Process documentation and improvement
  • Payroll controls and checking procedures
  • Recommendations for system and workflow improvements

Optional Bookkeeping Support

For businesses that want payroll and bookkeeping managed together, we offer combined support to keep your financial records consistent, accurate and up to date alongside your payroll.

  • Combined payroll and bookkeeping support
  • Bank reconciliation and transaction coding
  • Accounts payable and receivable support
  • BAS preparation assistance
  • Consistent records across payroll and accounts

Payroll software support

We work with a range of common payroll and accounting platforms. We can support your business using your existing payroll software where suitable — our focus is on getting payroll right, not locking you into a specific platform. Examples of platforms we work with include:
