Jira Solutions for the
Finance Industry in
Ireland & the UK

Let's Talk

Financial institutions today are under constant pressure to modernise operations, meet evolving regulatory demands, and deliver change quickly and at scale — all while staying competitive and compliant. While many teams turn to Atlassian tools to manage this complexity, they often encounter roadblocks that limit their effectiveness.

At VMotion IT Solutions

We specialise in helping finance-sector organisations across Ireland and the UK get the most out of Jira and Confluence. Our tailored implementations address the challenges faced by senior management, PMOs, and digital-transformation leaders across the financial services sector.

Common Challenges Faced by Teams Using Jira

Teams often struggle with deeply embedded operational inefficiencies and governance hurdles — especially when Jira is not configured to suit the organisation's specific working methods. Some of the most common pain-points include:

Limited Visibility Across Portfolios

Senior stakeholders and programme leaders often lack a consolidated, real-time view of projects and teams. This makes accurate reporting, priority alignment, and risk identification difficult.

Late Identification of Blockers

Without clear workflows and transparent status tracking, blockers often surface too late — causing delays, escalations, and missed delivery deadlines.

Unclear Ownership and Accountability

When initiatives span departments like risk, compliance, and IT, responsibility for tasks, approvals, and escalations is frequently unclear.

Manual and Time-Consuming Approvals

Approval chains are often lengthy and paper-based, creating bottlenecks, limiting velocity, and slowing response times to internal or regulatory demands.

Ineffective Resource Planning

Resource allocation is often imbalanced — with some teams overworked and others underutilised — making capacity management a constant challenge.

Fragmented Collaboration Across Teams

Teams working in silos or across disparate systems face difficulties in achieving seamless project delivery, traceability, and cross-functional alignment. Staff performing the same function do so with different cadences and metrics.

Difficulty Scaling Agile Practices

Many finance organisations adopt agile on a small scale but struggle to extend these methodologies across departments or the wider enterprise.

How We Help?

We enable teams across Ireland and the UK to harness Jira's full potential and the wider Atlassian suite, unlocking better performance, greater oversight, and more informed decision-making through the standardisation of workflows and establishing cadence across teams and processes.

Our Jira and Confluence services for financial institutions include

Real-Time Portfolio Visibility

Executive dashboards and reports that provide oversight across all initiatives, programmes, and teams.

Early Blocker Detection

Automation and streamlined workflows to help teams identify and resolve issues before they escalate.

Digitised Approval Processes

Replace outdated sign-off procedures with trackable, compliant workflows that move faster and scale easily. We identify and link related processes across the enterprise to "join the dots" and amplify the value-proposition.

Balanced Resource Management

Improve team performance by monitoring workload distribution, preventing burnout, and making data-driven capacity decisions.

Integrated Collaboration Workflows

Break down silos by connecting teams and systems without compromising compliance or control. Build networks of supplier teams with defined services and products, connecting them with consumer teams and their business demands.

Scaled Agile Implementation

Transition to agile working methods that can be scaled across business units, while still meeting regulatory and reporting needs.

Integrate tangible products into your workflows

Teams create or interact with objects, constructs, or products "in real-life". Define these objects and their properties to make measurement and management of your workloads more relevant.

Embedding Jira into devops tool-sets

Giving software developers a lean and light-weight coding ecosystem with Jira integrated into a broader CI/CD platform.
