In Ireland, SD Worx is expanding its operations as it aims to strengthen its position in the payroll technology sector. The company, which has a long history in the region as Intelligo before its acquisition by SD Worx, has announced plans to invest €2.9 million in its workforce and create 40 new jobs over the next two years. This growth is in alignment with the company's strategy to diversify its product offerings in addition to payroll solutions. Eimear Byrne, the country leader with extensive experience in finance and technology, emphasizes the blending of SME culture with the resources of a larger company. This unique situation allows SD Worx to maintain an agile approach while capitalizing on the backing of a company with over 10,000 employees globally. The expansion includes the hiring of professionals in various roles, especially those with a blend of payroll and technology skills. The company's implementation team, in particular, is under pressure due to rapid sales growth, underscoring the need for qualified individuals to support its customer base effectively. Moreover, the integration of new technologies, especially in AI, is becoming increasingly pertinent in their hiring strategy, reflecting industry trends. SD Worx's capacity to navigate both the local SME environment and the demands of a larger corporate structure is seen as a competitive advantage, propelling them toward future growth in the Irish market. In a statement, Byrne mentions that the company is set to expand its workforce significantly, projecting to have over 100 employees by the end of 2025. This expansion is characterized by a strong commitment to service delivery and innovation, as SD Worx strives to meet the evolving needs of its client base in payroll and related services.
