About Us

Webster Buchanan Research is a market research and consulting company focusing on multi-country payroll. We operate from offices in California and the United Kingdom.

Webster Buchanan first began researching the multi-country payroll sector as far back 2003, when the sector was in its infancy. Since then, we have worked with numerous senior HR, payroll, and finance professionals from around the world through our consulting, market research and events activities. Our clients range from some of the world's largest multinationals (Fortune 100) to small companies operating in fewer than a dozen countries.
