Our mission is simple…
We are in business to help small businesses succeed. As an Employer of Record company, Milton Park Partners is able to help employers offer big-company benefits to every employee - whether you are a Fortune 500 company with contract labor, an entrepreneur or self-employed. We handle all of those headache-inducing logistics like payroll, compliance, benefits and HR, so you don’t have to.
It is our job to make it easier to run your business and ensure that your teams feel valued and supported. Our specialty is businesses of 1-5 employees, a size at which getting access to benefits like large group health insurance and short term disability were once impossible. And human resources tasks become another obstacle taking time away from your business. Let us take over, so you can focus on pursuing your passions and growing your dream.
As a family owned and operated business, we take pride in our close and long-lasting relationships with our customers and becoming an integral part of their team. We treat your business and employees as our own and provide the support you need for growth and retention.
Work with us. we’ve got you covered.
Who we are
wayne surman, founder and ceo
Before founding Milton Park Partners, Wayne spent over 45 years in international and domestic Sales and Marketing serving as CEO, President, Vice President of Sales, Corporate Founder and Entrepreneur. He has contracted and worked for various medical billing, staffing and technology companies, including one of the first companies selling PEO products to businesses. Most recently, he was the Vice President and Director for an employee outsourcing company where he refined his expertise in developing staffing strategies and utilizing an aggregated benefits program.
As a lifelong entrepreneur, Wayne recognized that one of the main challenges starting and successfully running a business was access to great healthcare and staying on top of the busywork that comes with HR. He noticed a large gap in serving businesses with under five employees. In 2014, he started Milton Park Partners with the goal of creating the opportunity for every entrepreneur or employee to start and be a part of a small business with access to comprehensive benefits and support.
