Most business owners run payroll alongside everything else. It gets done. But done is not the same as done correctly.
A wrong tax credit repeats on every run until someone catches it. A missed ERR filing doesn't announce itself — it shows up as a ROS notification. Small gaps stay gaps until someone is looking closely enough to find them.
CBCR runs it correctly from the start — and keeps it that way. One team, one job, one call when anything changes.
"Every payroll. Done without the stress. That is what correctly run payroll feels like."
Providing payroll outsourcing services in Ireland for over 16 years. IPASS-certified professionals based in Dublin. Specialists in managed payroll for Irish SMEs, My Future Fund auto-enrolment, PAYE real-time reporting, and payroll compliance across Healthcare, Construction, Finance, Logistics, Aviation and IT.
The software licence is the visible cost. The rest is less obvious. The afternoon before every payroll run, spent on queries instead of customers. The staff time on something a specialist should own. The Revenue letter that lands and you don't know if it needs urgent action — that is CBCR's job, not yours. That is the real cost of running payroll in-house. Not the licence fee — the time, the distraction, and the risk of getting something wrong.
Staff time, software licences, training, and the cost of corrections. Outsourcing the same payroll typically costs €15,000–30,000 — with near-zero compliance risk.
At your effective hourly rate, that's €10,800–21,600 of your time every year — spent on work that adds no value to your business.
This is not a list of services. These are all the things CBCR takes care of for every employee, on every payroll run.
Different businesses need different things from payroll. These are the conversations we have every day.
"We're expanding, the team is growing, and I can't keep running payroll myself. I need someone I trust to take it completely."
A payroll partner who owns it entirely. Fixed cost, zero surprises, one call when anything changes.
"My Future Fund went live in January and I'm still not confident our deductions are right. A €50,000 fine is not something I can explain to the board."
Full NAERSA compliance confirmed. Every obligation reviewed, every gap closed. Confidence, not stress.
"All the payroll knowledge lives with one person. When she goes, I have no idea how we keep running without missing a pay date."
Seamless handover. No disruption to pay runs. Full continuity from day one — no knowledge lost.
"We've grown faster than our systems. Payroll is getting more complex — RCT, different pay frequencies, BIK — and we're not equipped to handle it in-house anymore."
A scalable payroll operation that grows with you. Complex payroll made simple, whatever the headcount.
Whether you want payroll completely off your desk or expert support for your in-house team — here's what our clients win.
You hand it over. We run it. Every obligation, every deadline, every compliance change — managed. You get a monthly confirmation it's done. Nothing else to do.
Your team handles the routine. We step in for the complex stuff — auto-enrolment, Revenue queries, PAYE audits, cover when your payroll person is unavailable.
NAERSA setup, AEPN processing, contributions, opt-outs, refunds, re-enrolments. Live since January 2026. We handle every part of it — you receive confirmation, nothing more.
Not sure where you stand? We review your current setup, find the gaps, and tell you exactly what's at risk — then fix it, or show you how to.
Fixed monthly cost. No hidden extras. You'll always know exactly what you're paying — and what you're getting for it.
What we quote is what you pay. No per-query fees. No surprises on your invoice. Ever.
Marlena Cackowska built CBCR on a simple belief — that a business owner deserves a qualified professional who knows their payroll, picks up the phone, and gets it right every time. Not a system. Not a helpline. A person.
You get a named account manager who knows your payroll, your employees, and your business. When Revenue contacts you, you call them — not a helpline queue.
Every member of our team holds IPASS certification — the recognised standard for Irish payroll professionals. It matters when Revenue is looking closely at your payroll.
We're Dublin-based, Revenue-expert, and staffed by people who understand Irish payroll from the inside. Not a global platform with an Irish landing page.
In small teams, in-house payroll means sensitive salary information is visible to people who shouldn't see it. Outsourcing removes that confidentiality risk entirely.
"I used to dread every pay run. CBCR took over in January and I genuinely haven't thought about payroll since. Auto-enrolment, which I was absolutely dreading, was just handled."Operations Director · Healthcare, Dublin · 42 employees
"Revenue flagged our ERR submissions. By the time I'd finished reading the letter, Marlena's team had already started resolving it. That's the difference between a payroll partner and a software subscription."Finance Manager · Logistics, Cork · 31 employees
"Our payroll person left in March. I had 72 hours. CBCR had us running on schedule without missing a single pay run. The handover was smoother than anything I could have managed in-house."Managing Director · Construction, Leinster · 55 employees
"If you knew your payroll was correct, compliant, and completely off your plate — would you make the switch today?"
