PAYROLL SORTED LIMITED

Executive summary
Payroll Sorted Limited is a small Essex-based payroll bureau operating in a sector experiencing significant technology-driven disruption but benefiting from MTD regulatory tailwinds. While the business has achieved meaningful scale (32 employees) and recovered from earlier losses, its near-zero net asset position (£1,080), elevated VAT creditor (£55,759), and rapidly depleting equity cushion suggest aggressive owner extraction rather than sustainable growth. The company is a niche follower in a commoditising market, exposed to AI-driven margin compression and overly reliant on its sole director.
