The Challenge

Northern Ireland Screen is the national screen agency for Northern Ireland and is primarily funded by the Department for the Economy. Northern Ireland Screen’s activities make a considerable contribution to growing a sustainable
economy; creating opportunities & tackling disadvantage; and building a strong & shared future across the full range of the screen industries.
Given the increase of staffing in the forthcoming year and the additional administrative burden this would place upon existing staff Northern Ireland Screen had to decide on how to manage their payroll moving forward. To ensure that there was no disruption for their employees, they had to build resilience into their payroll processing.

Northern Ireland Screen decided to outsource their payroll and went to tender for a payroll provider that would provide reliable, resilient payroll processing and the payroll expertise, knowledge and support the team to ensure that the payroll process was consistent and relieve the admin burden of processing the monthly payroll.

In addition, and to save further double entry of information each employee can change their address and bank details within ESS which means that Northern Ireland Screens finance team can save even more time and resource.
