Improving the work life of payroll professionals.
Our mission at Paytools is create trusted payroll functions, with the help of simple-to-use technology.
We believe that calm, organised and compliant operations will elevate payroll to be more valued as a business partner.
WHERE DID OUR PASSION FOR PAYROLL BEGIN?
Peter, our Founder, started his first business dedicated to helping payroll 20+ years ago.
During his years working alongside payroll teams, he saw first-hand the daily pressures, complexities and challenges they face – often with little recognition.
That insight sparked a mission, to build software that not only simplifies payroll operations but genuinely improves the work lives of the people behind them.
Today, that mission drives everything we do.
Our core values
Discipline
We build organisational machines with frameworks that are repeatable, automated & documented.
Explorers
We bring new ideas to old problems and love to come up with solutions for unloved areas.
Open & Fun
We encourage a culture of playfulness. We prefer to tell it how it is without the buzzwords and bullshit.
Company culture & perks
Always learning
We believe in continuous improvement and learning new things. We love to challenge ourselves and each other.
We’re a small team
We’re a tight knit team under one roof. We wear lots of hats and love to collaborate as much as possible!
Transparent operations
Our people always understand our strategy, performance, goals and decision making process.
Extend the weekend
Every Friday we catch up for a team lunch (our shout) and then knock off early to kick-start the weekend.
Great companies
We work with amazing payroll teams from major brands (think University of Sydney, Bega and Volvo).
We value work/life balance. Lots of us have young families so we know how important it is to be flexible.
