🎉 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗮’𝘀 𝗣𝗮𝘆𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹 𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘂 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗲𝘀! Sona’s Payroll Bureau solution is a white-glove service we can provide to all our clients. Overseen by Sophie-Ellen Hoefkens, the Sona team takes over an organisation’s payroll responsibilities, saving them time, resources, and significantly reducing the risk of errors. 🍪 Insomnia Cookies chose our Payroll Bureau solution as part of their end-to-end digitisation process this year and went from contract sign-off to going live in less than two months! Currently, the Sona team manages all of their payroll activities, as well as pension management, delivering payslips to every team member via the Sona App. 📌 𝗪𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗲𝘀. With the help of Sona’s end-to-end HR, Scheduling, Comms, and Engagement solutions, the Insomnia team has been able to access schedules, book holidays, and be paid accurately and on time, every time. Payroll privacy and security is also not a concern for the finance team, as our services are fully compliant and up-to-date with the latest legislation. 💬 In Sophie’s words: “Working with Insomnia Cookies is a really great experience - rolling-out in two months and achieving zero payroll errors over four months is testament to their commitment to working seamlessly with the Sona team. They're an amazing organisation, with very high team satisfaction standards and it's been a pleasure to support them in delivering this.”
