MISSION We aim to support each person with an intellectual disability associated with our Services to live the fully integrated holistic life to which each aspires as a family member, as a member of a local community and as a citizen of Ireland. We strive to provide such services and supports as will assist each in achieving these goals. BACKGROUND BOCSI has consolidated its primary information technology infrastructure and business application systems (Finance, Human Resources and Persons Supported Systems) over the past 3 years. A national datacentre has been deployed, and systems are being migrated from each region. Further, the key finance and HR systems have been migrated to SQL with further integration work required. Some legacy Microsoft Access based applications remain which run the Client Support Systems. The organisation currently operates across five distinct regions, each with non-standardised processes and reliance on paper-based timesheet systems. Payroll is managed through a custom-developed in-house system, which will receive data inputs from the new Rostering and Time and Attendance System.

Importantly, having all regions' data on centrally managed digital systems enhances reporting for regulatory bodies, ensuring accurate, comprehensive, and timely compliance. Following the successful completion of the Rostering and Time & Attendance (T&A) project, this role will transition to support a range of payroll and finance-related initiatives. These include, but are not limited to, contributing to the implementation of HSE's National Integrated Staff Records and Pay Programme (NiSRP) system, reviewing and refining existing payroll processes to drive efficiency and compliance.
