Claire Warner MSc FIPP - Partner

Since falling into payroll over 28 years ago Claire’s payroll career has spanned a variety of industries, both in the public and private sectors working on large and small payrolls. Always a passionate believer in the value of high quality training, Claire then made a deliberate decision to move into this particular area and undertook the role of consultant and training manager for an award winning payroll software house.

Upon successfully completing the IPP Diploma, she went on to become one of the first and elitist group who graduated with the Masters degree in Payroll Management.

Claire Warner MSc FIPP

In January 2003 Claire was invited to join the IPP in a position which lead to her most recent role with them, that of ‘Head of Qualifications’. The role brought together not only her considerable talents and expertise in the Payroll and Training arenas, but also encompassed many other responsibilities. During her time with the institute she successfully wrote a number of training courses, and delivered across their entire portfolio. She has become an accredited lecturer at the University of Derby and is a regular guest speaker at Payroll events and conferences throughout the country.

Claire’s passion for her subject and the people who work within this industry has made her a much listened to speaker and a true ‘ambassador’ for her chosen profession. She has long been recognised as a leading figure in raising the profile of Payroll and takes every opportunity to share her enthusiasm with people new to the industry.

Having successfully undertaken the IPP Diploma in Payroll Management she has since gone on to tutor and train and write material for the Institute on numerous courses and qualifications, receiving the prestigious and much coveted ‘Tutor of the Year’ award in 2006.
