Time for Payroll to take control

Auto-enrolment has become an integral part of every employer’s financial administration process. Many employers need their payroll bureau, accountant, bookkeeper and/or financial adviser to play a central role in ensuring they become and remain compliant with their auto-enrolment obligations.

1. What is auto-enrolment and how does it work? 
2. How can advisers engage most effectively with their clients, select a quality scheme and manage ongoing administration? 
3. How do Smart Pension's advanced technology solutions help simplify and facilitate engagement with the auto-enrolment administration process?

In today’s discussion, Griselda Williams and Mat Castle, Directors of Business Development at Smart Pension, will explore these questions and outline ways to help you engage with auto-enrolment in a way that is simple, time efficient and cost effective for both you and your clients.
