Premier Payroll Solutions Named to Inc. 5000 for Fourth Consecutive Year

LONG ISLAND, NY | August 12, 2026 | Premier Payroll Solutions has once again been named to the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest growing private companies, marking the company’s fourth consecutive year earning a place on the prestigious national ranking.

The recognition reflects Premier’s continued growth as a payroll, HR, and workforce management provider and, more importantly, the long term relationships the company has built with its clients, employees, referral partners, and business community.

“Being named to the Inc. 5000 once is an incredible accomplishment. Earning that recognition four years in a row means even more to us because it demonstrates sustained growth,” said Michael D’Onofrio,  Managing Partner of Premier Payroll Solutions. “We have grown by staying focused on what got us here: taking care of our clients, investing in our people, improving our technology, and continuing to expand the ways we can help businesses manage their workforce.”

Growth Built on Relationships

Premier Payroll Solutions has built its business around a simple philosophy: combine powerful workforce technology with the personalized service and accessibility businesses often struggle to find from larger national providers.

That approach has helped Premier grow largely through relationships and referrals. Existing clients have expanded their partnerships with Premier, businesses have transitioned from other payroll and HCM providers, and trusted partners including accountants, benefits professionals, consultants, and industry organizations have continued to introduce Premier to new businesses.

While Premier serves organizations across a wide range of industries nationwide, the company has developed particular expertise working with businesses that have complex workforce needs, including hospitality and restaurant groups, multi-location employers, and growing organizations.

The Inc. 5000 annually recognizes the fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States based on percentage revenue growth over a three-year period. Premier’s fourth consecutive appearance reflects not simply a single period of rapid expansion, but continued growth over multiple years.

Expanding Beyond Payroll With WayRoll HR

A significant step in Premier’s continued evolution came earlier this year with the acquisition of WayRoll HR, expanding Premier’s ability to provide businesses with comprehensive HR services and strategic workforce support.

The addition of WayRoll HR brought together Premier’s payroll, technology, compliance, and workforce management infrastructure with an experienced team of HR professionals and a highly personalized HR service model.

Through WayRoll HR by Premier Payroll Solutions, clients can access additional HR expertise and support alongside the payroll and workforce technology they already rely on.

The acquisition represents Premier’s broader growth strategy: not simply becoming a larger payroll company, but becoming a more valuable workforce partner to its clients.

“Our clients are asking us to help with much more than processing payroll,” D’Onofrio said. “They are dealing with HR challenges, compliance, recruiting, benefits, onboarding, employee management, time tracking, and an increasingly complicated workforce environment. Our goal is to continue building the team, technology, and expertise that allows them to turn to one trusted partner for those needs.”

More Than Payroll

Today, Premier Payroll Solutions provides an expanding suite of payroll, HR, and workforce management solutions designed to reduce administrative complexity and help employers operate more efficiently.

Services include payroll processing and tax management, employee onboarding, HR services and advisory support, benefits and ACA management, recruiting and applicant tracking, time and attendance, employee self-service, reporting, integrations, and other workforce management solutions.

Premier also continues to invest in technology and integrations that connect payroll and HR information with the systems businesses already use, helping eliminate duplicate work and disconnected processes.

The result is a service model designed to combine the capabilities of a national HCM provider with the accessibility, expertise, and personal attention of a dedicated team.

Looking Ahead

Premier plans to continue investing in its people, technology, partnerships, and expanded HR capabilities while remaining committed to the service model that has fueled its growth.

“This recognition belongs to our entire team,” D’Onofrio said. “It also belongs to the clients and partners who have trusted us, referred us, challenged us to get better, and allowed us to grow alongside their businesses.”

“As proud as we are to make the Inc. 5000 for a fourth consecutive year, we are even more excited about where Premier is going next. We believe there is a tremendous opportunity to build something different in our industry: a company with the technology and capabilities businesses need, while never losing the relationships and personal service that made us successful in the first place.”
