Member benefits

WhatsApp community

Members have access to our private WhatsApp community where they can interact with other members on a range of work-related topics.

The community is divided into various sub-groups so that members can choose which topics are of specific interest to them.

Imagine having over 150 fellow bureau leaders at your fingertips, ready to help you with your query!

Webinars

Members have free access to all our monthly webinars, held during the second week of the month.

The format is usually a panel session where four bureau managers share their views and experiences on a topical subject. Examples of webinars we have already hosted include: implementing automation in your firm; software selection; and pricing for profit.

Vendor Partnership Initiative

If you’re leading a bureau and you want more influence over the tools and services you rely on — and a more effective way to feed back, learn from peers, and shape vendor priorities — this is exactly what ABM was built for.

ABM members will be at the centre of the VPI: helping set the engagement agenda, contributing feedback, and ensuring discussions stay practical, honest and outcome-led.

Regional Roundtable meetings

Members have discounted access to one of the Bureau Managers Roundtable meetings we host in superb venues across the whole of the UK.

These in-person gatherings, typically comprise 8-10 bureau seniors and provide the opportunity to collaborate closely with your peers and delve deeper into the challenges of managing a busy payroll bureau.

Collaborating
Bureau Management Conference

As the main event of the year, this conference is an unmissable celebration of the hard work and achievements of bureau leaders across the country. It’s your chance to learn, connect, and celebrate with fellow professionals in the payroll services industry.

Your membership comes with a significant discount on ticket prices, so take advantage and secure your place at a reduced rate!

Benchmarking

Benchmarking offers payroll bureaus a powerful tool to assess their performance against industry standards and peers

By comparing anonymised metrics such as revenue per payroll and per payslip, payrolls handled per team member, bureaus can identify strengths, uncover opportunities for improvement, and set realistic, strategic goals.
