Liberata – Expert at Schools’ Payroll Services

Overview

Liberata manages the payroll for hundreds of schools, academies and trusts. In Worcestershire alone, where we have been working with the County Council to provide services since 2016, Liberata pays over 13,000 staff across more than 300 schools.

Another important Liberata school client is The Rivers Church of England Academy Trust – 510 staff across ten schools with a further three schools and 200 staff members from April 2021.

For both these clients, Liberata utilises the iTrent cloudbased HR and Payroll solution. This solution provides full employer, manager and stakeholder self-service capability along with the ability to handle multiple, complex sets of terms and conditions with associated remuneration packages. The iTrent solution is integrated into the clients’ financial systems using a flat file interface that keeps the cost and complexity of the integration down, but maximises the availability of the system and the flexibility of the integration.

In addition, Liberata’s “Giving back” programme includes

  • Sponsorship of local events and children’s sports clubs
  • Staff to support children through the Reading Buddies scheme
  • Provision of learning resources and books into schools
  • Work experience opportunities to children in secondary schools
  • Pathways onto apprenticeship programmes for school leavers

Rebecca Keene

Eastleigh Borough Council has worked with Liberata for a number of years who undertake the council's empty home reviews, and I must say, their service exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, they demonstrated professionalism, efficiency, and a genuine commitment to addressing this critical issue in our community. Thanks to Liberata, the council has been able to maximise our empty home bonus year on year. This positive impact on our community cannot be overstated.

The RV Finder service from Liberata has really helped us ensure that our data is as accurate as possible and, when the VOA has processed the outstanding cases, I fully expect to see more than £1,000,000 of additional RV. The “risk and reward” model works well and the Council only has to pay for their success and the service is something that we will use on a regular basis.

The joint strategy has helped to deliver innovative solutions that have exceeded expectations, whilst providing savings to the authority. This surge in digital engagement has helped deliver strong year one outturn with electronic billing and the technology will enable us to show improvements in the benefits speed of processing and in Council Tax processing of moves, discounts and exemptions.
