While saying that we live in a “digital age” is a bit cliché, there is no denying that the internet and social media have revolutionized how we interact and live. This dependence on digital tools especially spills over into the business world. A new class of entrepreneurs has arisen – The Technopreneurs.
In recognition of her outstanding contributions in the field of human resources and technology, as well as job creation, Christhea Tim V. De Jesus, fondly called Timmy, is recognized as the CCCI Technopreneur of the Year. This prestigious award celebrates her innovative approach, application to HR solutions, and unwavering commitment to helping businesses thrive and excel.
Timmy and her partners co-founded Payruler in 2015, a leading provider of HR management software (HRMS) and payroll systems in the Philippines, which centralizes HR processes, such as onboarding, benefits management, and performance tracking, streamlining operations and improving accuracy. From onboarding to payroll, Payruler has simplified the lives of HR teams across the Philippines, helping them focus less on paperwork and more on people. With over 100 SMEs and large corporate clients, Payruler has processed over PHP 20 billion in salaries and boasts an impressive 88% industry coverage.
Timmy’s vision for Payruler is to create an end-to-end HR solution that would automate, integrate, and streamline HR processes, enabling businesses to focus on their most valuable asset – people. She recognizes that HR is not just about enforcing policies but also about driving business success and making informed and strategic decisions.
Payruler’s innovative HRMS and payroll system has revolutionized how businesses manage their HR functions. With features such as automated payroll processing, error and dispute resolution, and mobile timekeeping, Payruler saves companies time and resources while ensuring accuracy and compliance.
With that in mind, Payruler’s Empower app and ESS portal are perfect examples of this philosophy. These tools put employees in the driver’s seat, giving them easy access to vital information while reducing administrative burdens for HR teams. The recently launched Payruler Experts Community also puts the heart of HR front and center, highlighting learning with and from each other, as well as convening about innovative business practices that support strategic HR roles.
Timmy’s commitment to excellence and passion for empowering HR departments have been instrumental in Payruler’s success. As Payruler continues to grow and expand, Timmy remains steadfast in her mission of helping businesses manage their teams efficiently and, at the same time, advocating for a more conducive ecosystem where technology adoption gets more profound and widespread and where more technopreneurs converge to create solutions and spread beyond the metropolis with enduring value, integrity, and ethics.
