HR and payroll software for higher education
Managing people, payroll and workforce data can be complex. MHR brings these processes together in one platform, helping universities and other higher education providers manage payroll, support compliance and streamline workforce administration.
Handle complex payroll
Higher education payroll involves multiple contracts, casual workers, term-time arrangements and pension schemes.
MHR helps institutions manage these requirements, including the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) and Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS), reducing manual administration and enabling teams to process payroll consistently.
Support digital transformation
Higher education institutions pursuing digital transformation may still rely on spreadsheets and disconnected systems, leaving teams to sort through data and repeat manual tasks.
MHR connects employee, payroll and reporting processes, helping teams improve data visibility and make more informed workforce decisions.
