Broncos Leagues Club

The Broncos Leagues Club promotes a great employee experience while saving over 20 hours a month in processing payroll.

Taking a members-first approach with the Broncos Leagues Club

Situated across the road from the Clive Berghofer Centre on Fulcher Rd, the Broncos Leagues Club boasts four dining venues, over 250 gaming machines, and nearly 40 years of iconic NRL history.

Maintaining the club's 50,000 members requires more than just great footy, it requires world-class service and community born out of the member's club. With over 100 staff, the Leagues Club prides itself on delivering an exceptional experience for its members, driven by operational excellence and a workplace their team genuinely love.

That's why getting the right people in the right place at the right time, and having the systems to support that, is critical.

Broncos Leagues Club's biggest challenges

When Chris Williams (CFO) and Tom Streater (CEO) stepped into their roles within the last 3 years, they had inherited outdated systems and processes that held the club back, including:

  • Lack of visibility over their venue and labour spending
  • Unreliable data that required manual checking
  • Excessive time it took to run payroll
No more flying blind

When you're spending close to 20% of your total revenue on labour, rostering can't be a blind spot. Without real-time visibility, the Broncos Leagues team struggled to match staffing to demand and control labour costs.

Pairing Tanda with their POS system unlocked insights down to the hour, and meant they could set realistic targets and adjust as required.

“Labor controls is one of the main KPIs that we’re judged on in our effectiveness in managing hospitality businesses. Our process is all based around Tanda and the sort of information that we can get from it in real time, because it's that one stop shop with rostering and payroll all in one.”

Under the Registered and Licensed Clubs Award, some of the nichest award conditions can affect pay outcomes. While many systems claim they've got award interpretation covered, their clients are still left manually updating rates increases, calculating penalty rates, and navigating compliance on their own.

Before Tanda, payday required hours of manual data checking and interpretation. Not only was it slow, but the risk of errors was high.

For CFO Chris Williams, it's not just about speed, it's about peace of mind.

"When we first transitioned to Tanda, I was a bit skeptical. So I did a lot of checking and cross-checking for the first couple of months, and it never skipped a beat. So now I just go ahead and I process payroll, and that's where a lot of the time saving has come from."

The time saving has meant Chris saves over 20 hours a month in payroll processing, and can focus his time on improving operational efficiency.

A better experience for the whole team

For frontline staff, simplicity is key for having a great shift. So anything Tanda can do to streamline the hiring, onboarding, and day-to-day operations for them, translates to a better experience for their customers, too.

With their rostering and HR tools in the same system, staff can make the changes they need to easily, meaning less headaches for the back office.

"By the time we get to the interview stage, we've actually got a fair bit of information about that person. That person can jump on Tanda, they can upload all their documents and they sort of onboarded before they even get to the club for the first day. Then it's straightforward and simple for the team to get into the work, to clock on automatically, to be at work on time and stress free."
