About Personio

Personio is a European all-in-one HRIS with a strong UK and Ireland presence, known for its built-in recruiting and ATS and a GDPR-first approach. It offers explicit UK tooling including right-to-work and share-code check workflows, with strong compliance and reporting. Payroll is via integration rather than native UK PAYE/RTI. UK pricing is quote-only and tiered, aimed at teams from around ten employees upward, making it a strong fit for growing UK and EU companies.
