For accountancy and advisory firms

Keep your people once they qualify.

Already used by accountancy and advisory firms across the islands.Newly qualified accountants on the islands are courted by audit firms, fund administrators and trust companies at once. PayPulse shows you where audit, tax and advisory pay sits in the Jersey, Guernsey and Isle of Man market, anonymously aggregated from local employers.

The problem

Every other sector wants your people.

  • Qualification is a flight moment

    The moment a trainee qualifies, their market value changes and so do their options. Firms that price that step late lose people they spent years training.

  • You are not only competing with other firms

    Accountants move into funds, trust and industry, not just to rival practices. A benchmark that only covers accountancy firms misses where they go.

  • Busy season leaves no time for spreadsheets

    Pay reviews collide with deadlines. Assembling a market view by hand every year is time a practice does not have.

How PayPulse helps

See where your people could go, before they do.

  1. Your peers, or the whole market

    Filter to other accountancy and audit employers where the pool is deep enough, then widen to the whole island market to see what funds and trust businesses pay the same skills.

  2. The full distribution, not the average

    See P25, P50 and P75 for each role in your jurisdiction and decide where in the range you want to compete, with your own team plotted alongside.

  3. New-joiner pay trends

    What new hires signed for in recent months against what incumbents earn, so you spot pay inflation in a family before it reaches your team.

  4. Partnership and management in view

    Senior levelling asks about partnership and management committee responsibilities, so the roles that combine practice and leadership are placed fairly.

Roles we benchmark

Audit, tax, advisory and everything around them.

The PayPulse framework covers the families accountancy and advisory firms hire for, and the finance roles in other sectors that compete for the same people.

  • Audit
  • Taxation
  • Management consulting and advisory
  • Financial and management accounting
  • Fund accounting
  • Trust and corporate services accounting
  • Risk management
  • Compliance

Questions

Asked before every demo.

Can we compare only against other accountancy and advisory firms?

Yes. Every dashboard filters by industry, including accountancy and audit. To protect anonymity, a result only shows when enough organisations and records sit behind it, so a very narrow filter can fall back to the wider island market until the pool is deep enough.

Will other organisations see our salary data?

No. Contributions are anonymised and aggregated. You see the shape of the market, never an individual salary or an identifiable organisation, and no result is shown unless several other employers sit behind it.

Does PayPulse tell us what to pay?

No, and it should not. PayPulse shows you where the market sits for a role and level. Where you position pay against that evidence stays your decision.

Which markets do you cover?

Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man, each benchmarked as its own market and refreshed periodically as new data reaches the pool.
