Gallagher Keane

Gallagher Keane is an accountancy practice in Ireland working mostly with young, fast-growing businesses. Beyond compliance work it acts as an outsourced finance function for firms that do not yet have their own finance director, and helps overseas companies set up an Irish entity.

What Gallagher Keane offers

• Accounting — accounts compliance, bookkeeping, company secretarial work and payroll.
• Tax — corporation tax, personal tax and advice for international businesses.
• Corporate finance — business sales, debt and equity fundraising, and management buyouts.
• Business strategy — support on decisions about growth, banks and investors, including dealings with Enterprise Ireland.
• Cloud accounting — Xero and Hubdoc setups for up-to-date figures and less manual data gathering.
• Outsourced CFO — part-time finance leadership until a client hires its own.

Who it works with

Testimonials come from start-ups, a retailer that grew to four shops, a practice that handed over its whole finance function, and UK firms opening in Ireland. Conor and Colin are named as the advisers.
