Hear from some of our clients

Salary Sacrifice enabled our team to save more of what they earn. This has been extremely important recently with the ever increasing cost of living.

The business being able to benefit from employer savings is also a win. Savings can be used elsewhere or passed back to the team to further enhance staff benefits,

The transition process is very straightforward and the team at Penfold do a super job at explaining each step.

    Before Penfold, our pension scheme just wasn’t fit for purpose.

    We weren’t able to offer salary sacrifice and all employees who were earning above the basic tax rate had to claim back directly from HMRC

    The support offered by Penfold on the implementation and day-to-day support has been superb, and reduced the amount of work that the finance team had to do previously.
