In addition, PaycheckPlus payroll expert, Michelle Melia also received a special recognition award in the ‘Payroll Specialist of the Year’ category.
‘The Payroll Awards’ is the only award ceremony in the world for professionals involved in the global payroll sector.

The company is unique in Ireland, in that they also provide in-house workshops and online training to their clients.
Anne Reilly, Founder and CEO of PaycheckPlus says: “We are absolutely delighted to win this award particularly with so much recent change within the sector and with significant developments on the way, such as the introduction of PAYE Modernisation, the General Data Protection Regulation and legislation changes as a result of Brexit. Preparing for these developments is imperative for businesses and can be challenging for HR and payroll staff. That’s where we can help. We deliver a complete, consistent, proven service that’s built on the solid foundations of tight, well-honed practices and a highly qualified expert team.”
“We’re also delighted for Michelle Melia who is now Ireland’s first payroll professional to receive special recognition on the global stage. Payroll processing and compliance can be a thankless job with little recognition. However, Irish payroll personnel should be and are starting to get deserved recognition for their excellence.”
