BDO Ireland

BDO Ireland provides outsourced payroll services to businesses in Ireland and abroad across a range of sectors. Its approach goes beyond a conventional payroll bureau, drawing on specialists in related disciplines such as employment tax so that payroll, tax and reporting obligations are handled together.

The Irish payroll service covers onboarding with a dedicated team and a review of the client's existing payroll process, data feeds using BDO templates and a secure global portal for document sharing, and payroll processing with quality assurance by experienced payroll specialists, reviewers and account managers. BDO also manages healthcare and benefit payments through integrated feeds with third-party providers, pension auto-enrolment and re-enrolment, contribution payments, payslip delivery by encrypted email or a dedicated payslip platform, and bank files for client payment platforms. Reporting includes automated general ledger reports, gross-to-net reports and a standard suite of reports, with bespoke reporting, supplementary runs, CSO returns and gender pay gap reporting available.

BDO supports clients moving between payroll platforms, changing providers or transitioning from an in-house function, and works with a range of payroll and HR systems, using automation to integrate HRIS and payroll and reduce manual handling. For international clients, the team advises on complex compensation arrangements including equity, special reliefs, global mobility programmes and international transfers, alongside employer tax compliance.
