Bio
Marek Dresler, MBA (H1)
I reported to Roisin when I worked for IT Force. Aside from managing various other duties, she also oversaw an excellent new employee induction programme that ensured new staff felt welcome and was well prepared for their new roles and working environment. Roisin is a highly organized, capable, supportive professional that would be a great asset to any organization.
Brendan O'Sullivan
Roisin is one of those unique managers, who everyone would love to work for. In my role, Roisin has provided me with great autonomy, and has given me huge opportunities to learn and develop, for which I am very grateful. Her management style can be surmised by her willingness to praise employees, rather than to admonish them. Roisin is naturally a brilliant communicator who possess's a unique capacity for empathy. The working atmosphere in IT Force is fantastic and this is testament to Roisin's dedication and commitment to each one of her employees. Consequently, Roisin is held in exceptionally high regard by all of her employees. I would not hesitate in recommending Roisin to a friend, as either a manager and mentor, or as a service provider.
