Next phase of growth

The company’s platform processes payroll in more than 150 countries, providing employers with real-time data analytics and advanced reporting capabilities while ensuring compliance and data security.
“Immedis is redefining how organisations are managing global payroll through service and technology,” said Brian Neider, a partner a Lead Edge Capital who will now join Immedis’s board of directors.
“The company is trusted by some of the world’s fastest growing enterprises like ServiceNow, Uber and Nutanix, and we are excited to help fast-track the Immedis success story.”
Immedis described 2020 as an “exceptional year” for the business, with the shift to remote and distributed working driving the demand for enterprise tech. It claimed that it saw more than 100pc year-on-year bookings growth.
Ruairi Kelleher, CEO of the company, said it is an “incredibly exciting time for Immedis” with this new injection of investment. Founder and chair Clune added that the company is now looking at the “next phase” of its growth.
