Built Around How You Work
NOT ALL PAYROLL OUTSOURCING
IS CREATED EQUAL.
PPS offers three distinct managed payroll models, so you access exactly the right level of support, without paying for what you do not need.
Team Extension
Your team, extended by experts
Our experienced payroll professionals fill key roles, provide short term support, and strengthen your internal capability. We help you stay on track during peak periods and keep payroll running smoothly without interruption.
With our Team Extension Service, you gain more than a pair of hands. You gain access to a group of seasoned payroll experts who know the systems, the legislation, and the realities of getting payroll right in New Zealand. Whether you need short-term support or specialised skills, we bring the knowledge and experience that keeps things moving.
- Organisations with internal payroll teams that need specialist support during transitions or peak periods
- Teams facing pressure from staff leave, high processing volume, or gaps in experience
- Businesses seeking a reliable partner to maintain payroll accuracy without adding headcount
Tell us where you are stretched. We will match you with a specialist who can step in immediately, with minimal ramp-up and maximum impact.
Managed Payroll
End to end payroll with full accountability
Through years of remediation work, we have seen exactly where hidden errors start and, more importantly, how to stop them before they cause damage.
All of our operations are based in New Zealand. Your data stays protected and your business does not take on unnecessary risk just to save on cost.
You will always have a dedicated team member who stays with your account from beginning to end, bringing consistency, clarity with our Managed Payroll Service.
- Organisations that want full operational delivery of payroll
- Businesses that have a system and policies in place but need to focus their internal team on more mission critical work
- Teams who want to stay involved at the approval level, not the processing level
- Employers who prefer clarity, accuracy, and accountability without extra overhead
We meet with you to understand your payroll setup, policies, and people. Then we build a complete runbook and take over full responsibility for system access, processing, checks, reporting, and delivery.

Why New Zealand Organisations Are Outsourcing Payroll
These are not edge cases, they are the reality for organisations whose payroll function is under-resourced, under-supported, or simply not built for New Zealand's legislative complexity.
The financial and reputational cost of getting it wrong consistently outweighs the cost of getting expert support in place from the start.
MBIE investigations, back-pay remediation projects, and Employment Court proceedings are not hypothetical risks.
They happen. We have seen them and we have fixed them.
Outsourcing your payroll to PPS is not a cost decision. It is a governance decision.

Managed Payroll Outsourcing in New Zealand
THE QUESTIONS WORTH ASKING
BEFORE YOU OUTSOURCE PAYROLL.
What does managed payroll outsourcing include in New Zealand?
At PPS, managed payroll outsourcing covers the full operational delivery of your payroll, including payroll processing, compliance checks, leave and entitlement calculations under the Holidays Act 2003, payslip generation, IRD reporting, and payment coordination.
The scope is tailored to your organisation, but full accountability for accuracy and compliance always sits with our team.
How is PPS different from a payroll software provider?
A payroll software provider gives you a platform and expects your team to operate it.
PPS takes over the operation entirely. We bring the people, the compliance expertise, the processes, and the accountability: your existing system, or our hosted environment through PaaS⁺, is simply the tool we use to deliver.
Will my payroll operation stay in New Zealand?
Yes.
PPS is a New Zealand-owned business and all operations are based in New Zealand.
Do your managed payroll services cover Holiday Act compliance?
Yes
Holiday Act compliance is embedded into everything we do. Our team holds deep, tested expertise in the Holidays Act 2003, including leave entitlement calculations, public holiday treatment, and the complexities that affect variable-hours and shift workers. Our Holidays Act remediation framework is recognised by MBIE.
Can PPS work with our existing payroll system?
In most cases, yes.
Our Managed Payroll Services model is designed to operate within your existing platform: you retain system and data ownership while we take over operational delivery.
If you want to move away from your current system entirely, PaaS⁺ provides a fully hosted, enterprise-grade alternative managed entirely by PPS.
How long does transitioning to PPS managed payroll take?
Transition timelines vary depending on the complexity of your payroll environment, but most clients are fully operational with PPS within four to eight weeks. We work to your schedule, and we always target a first pay run that is fully controlled, thoroughly verified, and confidence-building for your team.
We've done this before.
