Payroll Services for Small Businesses in Chesterfield and Beyond

What Our Payroll Service entails

Running payroll accurately and on time is one of the most important responsibilities a business owner has. Get it wrong and you’re not just dealing with unhappy employees — you’re dealing with HMRC.

At Legacy Figures Accountancy, we take payroll off your plate entirely. We manage the full payroll process on your behalf, handling everything from calculating wages and deductions to submitting Real Time Information (RTI) to HMRC every pay period — whether that’s weekly, fortnightly, or monthly.

Our payroll service includes:

Weekly and monthly payroll processing
RTI submissions to HMRC on your behalf
Auto-enrolment pension submissions
New starter and leaver processing
P60s and P11Ds
CIS (Construction Industry Scheme) payroll

Your employees get paid correctly and on time. HMRC gets what they need when they need it. And you stay compliant without having to manage any of it yourself.

What Our Payroll Service Means for You

Payroll is one of those tasks that has to be right every single time. A mistake doesn’t just cause admin headaches — it affects your employees directly and can trigger penalties from HMRC.

With us handling it, you don’t have to think about payroll deadlines, pension submissions, or whether your RTI filing went through correctly. It’s handled, every pay period, without you having to chase it.

And because your payroll sits alongside your bookkeeping and accounts with Legacy Figures, everything joins up. Your wage costs feed directly into your financial records, keeping your books accurate and your management accounts meaningful.

Our payroll service is designed for:

Limited companies paying directors and employees who want payroll handled compliantly
Small businesses that have outgrown DIY payroll and need a reliable process in place
Growing businesses taking on new staff and needing auto-enrolment set up correctly from the start
Contractors and subcontractors operating under the Construction Industry Scheme

Whether you’re based in Chesterfield, Sheffield, Nottingham, Derby, or anywhere across our service area, we provide a straightforward, reliable payroll service that keeps your business compliant and your team paid on time.

FAQs About Our Payroll Service

Can you take over payroll from my current accountant or provider?

Yes, we handle the transition process to make sure there’s no disruption to your payroll. We’ll need some information about your existing setup to get started, and we’ll walk you through exactly what’s needed.

What happens when I take on a new employee?

We handle new starter processing from the beginning, setting them up on payroll, registering them with HMRC where required, and making sure all obligations are met on time. When someone leaves, we handle that too.

What if I only pay myself as a director?

Many limited company directors pay themselves a small salary through payroll alongside dividends. We set this up correctly from the start, making sure your director payroll is structured tax-efficiently and filed with HMRC each year.

Do I need payroll even if I only have a few employees?

Yes, as soon as you’re paying anyone a wage, payroll obligations apply regardless of the size of your team. We work with businesses of all sizes, from sole directors through to small teams.

Do I need payroll if I’m the only person in my company?

If you’re a sole director paying yourself a salary, even a small one, you still need to run payroll and report it to HMRC. It’s one of those things that’s easy to overlook when you’re running everything yourself, but the obligation is the same regardless of company size. We set this up correctly from the start so it’s one less thing to worry about.
