BAS AGENT, BOOKKEEPER & PAYROLL SPECIALIST
Outsourced Payroll Services for Small Business
Running payroll in-house eats up hours you don't have, and getting it wrong is expensive.
Outsourcing your payroll to Payroll On Demand means wages, superannuation and reporting are handled accurately and on time, every single pay cycle, without you needing to keep across every rule change yourself.
We manage the full payroll function: employee onboarding, pay runs, Single Touch Payroll reporting, superannuation, leave entitlements and WorkCover calculations. If your business operates under an award, we make sure interpretation and payroll tax obligations are correct, so you're not left exposed at audit time. For businesses that need an extra layer of HR support, we can also act as an intermediary between you and your staff on payroll-related matters.
Everything runs through Xero, the leading cloud accounting platform for Australian small business. As a Xero Level 3 Certified Specialist, we set up, convert or clean up your Xero file, connect it with tools like Hubdoc for paperless document collection, and build a system that runs smoothly in the background. You get real-time visibility over your numbers without needing to touch the software yourself.
Outsourced payroll works whether you have one employee or fifty, and whether you're a tradie, a clinic, a retail business or a professional practice. It's particularly valuable if payroll currently falls to an owner or office manager who has plenty of other things to focus on, or if you've been caught out by a compliance issue in the past and want it handled properly going forward.
Payroll On Demand works with clients across Australia entirely online, alongside in-person clients in regional Victoria. As a registered BAS Agent, every single pay run and lodgement is backed by professional accountability.
