The firm was founded by Sean’s father, John O’Rourke, in 1989 and we work hard to ensure we blend the traditional values of a family business with a modern, technology driven service. Sean joined the firm 2007 having worked for leading global accounting firms in both Ireland and Australia. In 2009 Sean O’Rourke became our managing partner and the firm took a leap into the world of Digital Accounting.
We became one of the first Xero Certified accountants in Ireland and Xero quickly became the cornerstone of our practice. Clients from all over Ireland (and beyond) came to us because of our new innovative approach and commitment to using the power of Xero to move from annual returns to regular monthly accounts.
“O’Rourke & Co. have been my advisors since 2007. Sean introduced me to Xero & Receipt Bank in 2012 and this has transformed the way we are keeping our books. We now spend less time on data entry and more time on performance reports keeping me on top of my business finances. I now know the health of my business long before the year-end accounts are prepared.”

Our Team
We invest in our people. We realise that we don’t sell products, we sell our people’s time
Our team of 11 accountants & bookkeepers are headed up by Seán & Stacey
Seán O’Rourke, FCA
Sean is our Managing Partner, he is a graduate of the University of Limerick and a Chartered Accountant. Sean has worked with KPMG providing accounting and tax services to some of the largest multinational’s in Ireland but he wanted a bigger challenge……to provide the same quality of service to some of the smallest companies in Ireland! Sean is a bit of a nerd when it comes to technology and is obsessed with finding better and more efficient ways of doing things. 🤓🤓
Stacey O’Sullivan, FCCA
Stacey is head of our bookkeeping department. As a qualified accountant, she enjoys bridging the gap between our monthly bookkeeping services and the year-end accounts – a challenge she relishes. Stacey is Xero certified and qualified as a Chartered Certified Accountant in 2016. Stacey is a coffee connoisseur and her desk is rarely without her favourite Costa Coffee cup-especially around tax deadline time. ☕☕
