Zalaris has been named as a finalist in the following categories: 

  • International Payroll Service Provider of the Year 
  • Software Product of the Year (for Zalaris PeopleHub) 

Organised by the CIPP, the Annual Excellence Awards are among the most established and respected in the UK payroll industry, celebrating organisations and individuals demonstrating exceptional service, innovation and commitment to best practice. 

Being shortlisted in both a service and technology category highlights Zalaris’ continued investment in delivering high-quality, scalable payroll solutions alongside innovative HR technology that supports global organisations. 

Zalaris’ nomination for International Payroll Service Provider of the Year reflects its strong expertise in managing complex, multi-country payroll environments, supporting organisations with compliance, consistency and operational efficiency. 

Meanwhile, its inclusion in the Software Product of the Year category recognises the strength of Zalaris PeopleHub, the company’s unified HR and payroll platform designed to connect data, streamline processes, and enhance the employee experience through digitalisation, AI and automation. 

Stephen Burr, UK & Ireland EVP & Managing Director at Zalaris, commented:

"Being recognised in both service delivery and technology innovation is particularly significant for us. It reflects the strength of our end-to-end “One Partner” approach - combining deep payroll expertise with scalable multi-country solutions that help our customers simplify complexity and operate with confidence across multiple markets. We’re incredibly proud of our teams and the value they continue to deliver for our customers." 

The winners will be announced at the CIPP Annual Excellence Awards ceremony on 8th October this year, bringing together payroll professionals from across the UK to celebrate achievements in the industry.
