The Alltech Difference:
Alltech draws on our vast experience, people, friendliness and commitment to deliver maximum value for our clients.
This is the core of our business and since 1991 we have been focusing on delivering the highest standards and creating greater efficiency. With that 29 years of experience, we can provide our clients with up to date award and legislative knowledge.
All of the staff at Alltech have a solid payroll background experience with extensive knowledge across many sectors. We provide award interpretation, government legislation details, and we work with you to assist with your payroll issues.
This is what stands us apart from our competitors. We not only get to know your business but will also become an integral part of your business. NO CALL CENTRES HERE….all clients are assigned to a consultant who becomes familiar/ part of your operation and delivers a customised service that meets your requirements.
Alltech has a simple method based on the amount of staff per pay run: example, if you have 30 staff then you will be charged a flat fee per person per pay run and no additional charges. This flat fee covers everything associated with your payroll….you don’t have to pay for additional reports, phone calls etc….our flat fee covers everything….no hidden extra's. And no long term contracts, just high level of service guarantees.

As Payroll Operations Director and Owner, Steve’s industry journey began in 1992, leading to his acquisition of Alltech in 2004. He views outsourced payroll not as a transaction, but a trusted partnership where clients hand over significant business risk. Relentlessly advocating a customer-first culture, Steve’s leadership has forged long-standing client relationships averaging six years, proving integrity and reliability are the cornerstones of success.

Leading the daily operations of our bureau is Payroll Manager Juliette Brown. In an environment where regulations shift and payroll compliance is paramount, Juliette provides the structure and strategic leadership necessary for error-free processing. Her role is to foster consistency and operational excellence, ensuring that the payroll solutions we deliver are not just compliant, but seamless for the end-user.

Navigating complex Awards and Enterprise Agreements demands architectural expertise. As Head of Implementations, Xanthe brings unmatched technical mastery to Alltech. Having previously established the implementations arm at KeyPay (now Employment Hero), her intimate platform knowledge is unrivalled. She leads a dedicated consulting team specialising in thorough, compliant payroll implementations, ensuring even the most complicated rule sets are correctly automated from day one.
There is nothing more important to us at Alltech than ensuring timeliness, accuracy, and compliance when paying staff.
Having been involved in payroll for many years, including as an employee of Alltech, Stephen took over in 2020 to take the business to where it is today.
When cloud accounting started to surge around 2013, Steve sought out cloud payroll technologies to ensure the growth of the Alltech business and to deliver modern technology to clients to give them the automation and effortless compliance they too needed to grow.
