Practical people and employment tax advice

Financial-business-centre

Employees are one of the most valuable assets of any organisation, but managing the tax aspects of employing and rewarding people can be complex. Payroll obligations, benefits in kind, executive compensation and international mobility all create challenges for employers. 

At BDO Jersey, we provide practical advice that helps employers attract, retain and reward talent while staying compliant with changing requirements. 

Supporting employers today

The landscape for employers is constantly shifting. New reporting requirements, changes in tax law and growing expectations around compliance all increase risk. 

Our role is to balance these pressures by providing advice that is technically robust, commercially relevant and sensitive to reputational considerations. 

Core services

Payroll taxes 

We ensure compliance with payroll-related obligations, including ITIS and social security. Our support ranges from routine reporting to advice on structuring payroll more efficiently. 

Share schemes and executive rewards 

We advise on flexible benefit schemes, executive compensation packages, share schemes and other reward structures to help employers retain and incentivise key talent. 

Benefits in kind 

We help employers apply the correct tax treatment to employee benefits accurately and cost-effectively. 

Expatriate and international assignments 

We provide pre-assignment planning, in-assignment support and repatriation advice to help international mobility programmes remain compliant and efficient. 

Redundancy and terminations 

We advise on redundancy procedures and termination payments to help manage tax and social security costs while protecting your organisation’s reputation. 

Employment tax advisory 

Beyond day-to-day compliance, we help employers design and implement effective remuneration policies.

  • Salary exchange and flexible benefits packages.
  • Expenses and benefits policies that simplify reporting obligations.
  • Mentoring and upskilling for HR and finance teams.
