Ciphr receives double recognition at CIPP Awards

Ciphr has received two nominations at the Chartered Institute of Payroll Professionals (CIPP) Annual Excellence Awards 2026. 

The nominations follow Ciphr’s win in 2025, when Ciphr Payroll took the Software Product of the Year title. 

This year, the business is in the running for the same award again, as well as Software Innovation Product of the Year.

Ciphr’s payroll and HR integration has been recognised for addressing common issues caused by poor integration and manual processes. 

The new system offers a real-time, consolidated view of people and pay data, aiming to reduce compliance risk. 

Sion Lewis, CEO of Ciphr, said: “We’re delighted that Ciphr Payroll’s new HR integration has been shortlisted for two prestigious CIPP Awards. 

“We know that the judges are looking at the whole package when they make their considerations – not just the software and its benefits, but the customer experience, service delivery, resilience and team expertise that goes with it: how we support our customers through implementation, keep them compliant with regulatory and legislative changes, like the Employment Rights Act, help them power their day-to-day operations, and deliver efficiency gains. 

“The CIPP Awards celebrate the payroll and pay professionals driving the industry forward.”
