Payroll Vault

About Us

Cindy Thompson, Owner / Manager

After several decades as a corporate technology executive, I was looking for a more meaningful way to spend my time and use my experience in the community in which I live. I invested in Payroll Vault, a 16 year old franchise organization and became an active member and on the Board of Directors of the Walnut Creek Chamber of Commerce, and member of the Concord Chamber. I have anchored my business in that thriving business community and grown throughout the Bay area, mostly through referrals and word of mouth. It is fulfilling to put my management and business background to work helping other small businesses with a variety of needs. We specialize in helping small business owners with between 1 and 100 employees by making payroll easy so they can focus on growing their businesses.

Payroll Vault Walnut Creek has worked to design a variety of resources and opportunities for today's accounting firms. Our primary objective is to help you concentrate on future growth prospects for your accounting firm. We offer two support options: Referral Partner Program and Exit & Transition. Explore each option and initiate a conversation with us to learn more.
