Message from Barry Matthews
Founder of the Association of Bureau Managers

“I’ve been working with the payroll profession, primarily bureaus in the accountancy sector, for 20 years and it’s fair to say that I’ve witnessed a lot of change in that time.

I have developed immense respect for the whole payroll industry and the dedication of professionals who care passionately about paying the 32 million people working in the UK. But I have also come to believe that the bureau sector faces challenges which are positively unique and substantially different to those handled by in-house payroll teams and that therefore, they need an organisation dedicated to supporting their needs.”
