Payroll - providing UK and International payroll services to BBC staff and freelancers, ensuring systems are secure and agile to accommodate legislative changes and to enable payments and deductions in line with BBC policies.

Application Management Services - providing application management services and change delivery services for the BBC application landscape for Finance, Procurement and HR based on SAP (including ECC6, S4 Hana, SRM, Ariba, BW/BPC, Successfactors, Concur), and other BBC systems, including ACON for artist and contributors. The AMS services underpins smooth operational day to day running of the BBC.
