About this Event
The Bureau Management Conference returns in September 2026, this time in London, and you’re invited to be part of it! Following three highly successful events, and hosted by the Association of Bureau Managers (ABM), this is a gathering of payroll bureau leaders in the UK. A full day of insightful talks, dynamic panel discussions, interactive roundtables and high-value networking with peers and sponsors who genuinely understand bureau life.
If you run, lead or manage a payroll bureau, this is your room.
Why you should attend
🔹 Connect with people who “get it”
Running a bureau can be lonely. Here, you’re surrounded by people dealing with the same pressures around pricing, software, scope creep, client expectations and team capacity.
“It was great meeting up with like-minded people from our profession and I came away brimming with ideas… I wasn’t alone in my struggles as head of a payroll bureau.”
You’ll leave with new connections, trusted sounding boards, and a community you can lean on long after the day itself.
🔹 Gain practical, usable insight
This isn’t a generic payroll conference. Every session is designed specifically for bureaus and outsourced payroll teams.
What to expect on the day
- Keynote talks from leading voices in the bureau space
- Panel discussions with bureau managers, directors and partners
- Roundtable sessions where you can share challenges, ask questions and hear what’s working in other firms
- Sponsor conversations focused on tools and solutions that actually work for bureaus
- Plenty of time for informal networking, coffee chats and comparing notes
“Such a great day. I took away something from each and everyone at the table… I feel I am achieving much more today with a clearer mind.”
