Eira provided me with sound advice and really useful guidance in what was a particularly challenging period. Her logical & steady approach to payroll processes and procedures combined with expert knowledge was invaluable and reassuring.

Eira is a hard working and experienced payroll and HR professional and always impressed me with her in-depth knowledge.

Eira is a Board member of the CIPP and has the portfolio responsibility for Policy & Research. In this capacity Eira is the mentor for me as Associate Director of Policy. I have known Eira for more than five years, and over that time I have found Eira to be very supportive of me whether in my role as a CIPP tutor or latterly as my mentor. Eira is an excellent listener and a solver of problems.

She has expert skills in payroll and in people management. Eira is one of the nicest people anyone could meet, but she also has an assertiveness that encourages a “working together” attitude from her team. Eira has written many articles for the CIPP magazine demonstrating her wealth of knowledge in the more obscure payroll areas. I have no hesitation in recommending Eira and I value her supportive and leadership skills

I have known Eira for a while now as a tutor, member of the Institute, speaker, conference delegate, and a great mover on the dance floor!

More seriously I am always impressed by the professionalism shown by Eira in whatever she is involved in, more recently as a member of the IPP Board of Directors. Eira is approachable and always willing when requested to assist, it is a pleasure to be able to work with her and alongside her.

Eira has been on the Board of Directors at the CIPP since November 2008 and has been a valuable asset to the Institute. She has worked hard through her career to promote the payroll profession, and this is continuing through the work that she is doing on the CIPP’s Board. I am delighted to be working with her and am sure that she will provide valuable skills and knowledge to assist in the CIPP’s overall goal of achieving Chartered status

I worked with Eira for many years with both her and I working in changing roles/departments. I worked primarily in a development capacity with Eira working with/for customers more directly – she therefore represented their views when I contacted her for advice about developments and she contacted me for advice about developments affecting her or the clients.

She became an excellent sounding board over the years where I could ask and receive honest/well-thought through feedback on development issues where a client’s perspective was wanted. Similarly, ongoing feedback from Eira on existing software and developments helped us to not only improve the software but the various development processes we used too. In my occasional contacts with clients, those who had worked with Eira had nothing but praise for her and would often request her by name when seeking Consultancy assistance.
