Milsted Langdon’s Ed Mole wins prestigious national payroll award

Thursday 24th September, 2026

We are delighted to announce that Payroll Manager, Ed Mole, has been named the winner of the Emerging Leader Award at this year’s ABM Awards.

The awards recognise excellence across the payroll and bureau management profession. Judges praised the strength of this year’s entries, with Ed’s submission standing out as one of the best examples of emerging talent in the profession.

The result followed a formal interview with the judging panel, with the winner announced at the Bureau Management Conference held at the Royal College of Surgeons in London.

Ed supports the wider payroll function at Milsted Langdon, providing compliance and advisory assistance to the firm’s payroll clients. He also manages a dedicated team, providing support across the firm on payroll matters.

Commenting on his win, Ed Mole said: “I’m really proud to have won this award. Payroll can be a demanding profession and I get a lot of satisfaction from solving problems for clients and getting the detail right on complex projects, so it means a great deal to have that recognised.

We are growing and developing an exceptional team of payroll experts at Milsted Langdon and I am glad to be playing a part in our success.

This couldn’t have come at a better time as we, as a profession, celebrate the importance of payroll as part of National Payroll Week.

Since joining our firm, Ed has completed AAT levels 2 and 3 alongside the CIPP Advanced Payroll Technician qualification and is now studying towards his level 4 AAT qualifications.

He has gained considerable experience and become a valued member of the team, where he provides support and insight to his growing portfolio of clients.

Martin Johnson, General Practice Partner at Milsted Langdon, said: “Ed’s win at the Emerging Leader Award is thoroughly deserved. He has shown real dedication to the team and clients he supports and this recognition reflects brilliantly on him and the wider payroll team.”
