Who am I? Ko wai ahau?
Kia ora! I'm Natalia Mamea, nau mai haere mai.
I'm not your average payroll consultant - with 25 years’ payroll mastery behind me, I bring expertise you can trust - plus the heart to genuinely help. I value real partnership and enrich the spaces I'm in by walking the talk, seeing the value in each person and weaving our differences together. We innovate not from what's the same, but from our unique offerings.
If you're looking for someone who is a safe pair of hands to support you with all the challenges around NZ payroll process, legislation and team connection, I'm your person!
Why work with me?
Sure, you can hire any payroll consultant to make sure your payroll calculations and numbers add up today.
Or you can partner with me for accuracy and human connection - so your payroll is compliant now and your payroll team harmonised and empowered long term.
I'm independent with a range of service offerings that can be adapted to suit your business requirements for as little or as long as you need.
What do I bring that others don't?
What I know is that payroll is both art and science - technical excellence plus people-first empowerment. Most consultants focus on the technical - I give intentional priority to both the tools and the people to ensure sustainability.
Rooted in my Māori-Pasifika values, I bring not just technical know-how, but mana-enhancing leadership - turning payroll into a source of connection and trust.
I think clearly, flow differently and vibe highly. I'm tikanga guided, and grounded in manaakitanga, whanaungatanga and kaupapa-driven integrity which allows me to deliver expertise while building the heart and soul of your payroll function - so it drives both compliance and connection.
What value will you get?
With me, you don’t just avoid costly compliance issues and risky processes - you’ll gain a team that’s proud, engaged, resilient - and trusted across your organisation.
In my prior roles, payroll teams have reported improved accuracy, reduced errors, positive audit outcomes, stronger team cohesion through clear purpose, people development and a greater business-wide trust in payroll. I can deliver the same for you through my specialised consulting services which include:
- Payroll system and process audits, including risk identification
- Compliance alignment
- Payroll automation and process redesign
- Bespoke training for payroll teams and stakeholders
Am I the right fit for your business?
I work with NZ employers of any size, who recognise that payroll is much more than a back-office "press the red button" process.
My ideal clients value two things equally: accurate pay - and people who make it happen. You can't have one without the other.
So, if you truly value every person behind each payslip, and you recognise the skills and capabilities of your payroll team, and you want to have a payroll function that delivers accurate, on-time payments within a trusted, connected people environment, get in touch today.
So, what next?
Get in touch with me for a free, confidential 30-minute no-obligation consultation. From that initial call, I'll be able to gauge next steps and if you choose to go ahead will include me:
- Providing you with a questionnaire to help better understand your needs
- Reviewing your questionnaire and sending you an outline of recommended options and quotes
- Working with you to get the payroll review, best practice assessment or training sessions etc. underway
As each business is different, your options will be tailored to your needs.
