I reached out to Gemma on behalf of one of my clients, and she could not have been more helpful. She was out to see us the next day, ran health checks for the end-to-end payroll function, and seamlessly organised payroll processing until the business is able to recruit a replacement. She absolutely is a first-class payroll whisperer!
