Killarney-headquartered HR & Payroll firm HR Buddy has been recognised as one of the leading providers of Employer of Record (EOR) services in the latest market research published by anywherer.com.

The company, which also operates offices in Cork, Limerick, and Dublin, was highlighted for its dependable service in supporting global firms hiring in Ireland.

HR Buddy functions as an Employer of Record service provider for the Republic of Ireland, assisting foreign companies to legally hire Irish workers without the lengthy process of forming a local entity.

This service includes full HR support, payroll handling, and guidance on local compliance, effectively allowing the foreign firm to manage daily tasks while HR Buddy acts as the legal employer.

This model significantly reduces administrative delays and compliance risks for global businesses looking to expand into the Irish market.

The anywhere.com guide, which helps global businesses compare EOR options, noted that HR Buddy stood out for its local expertise, dependable service, and commitment to simplifying workforce management for global teams.

Damien McCarthy, Managing Director of HR Buddy, said” W”e are working with organisations in Japan, China, Singapore, Canada, US, Scandinavia, Europe & the UK. It is testament to our team that independent market research places us as a leading provider in this area,”

In addition to its EOR service, HR Buddy also provides HR and employment law support, payroll outsourcing, HR Buddy Manager software solutions, and workplace training to businesses across Ireland.

The company celebrates its 9th year in business this month.
