If you mean president his name is Michael D. Higgins. The head of the Irish government, a post known as the Taoiseach, is Enda Kenny. These two hold office at the time of answering this question, the 15th of November 2011.

The Taoiseach is the head of an Irish government, similar to a prime minister in other countries. See the link below for details on what a Taoiseach can do.
The Taoiseach is the head of the government. As Ireland is a democracy, the Taoiseach is answerable to the Irish parliament, known as the Dáil and to the people of Ireland. The head of state in Ireland is the president, and officially appoints a Taoiseach after the Dáil has voted for a Taoiseach and accepts a Taoiseach's resignation and the calling of a general election after its dissolution for of the Dáil for an election.
There is no time limit on a Taoiseach as such. There must be a general election at least every 5 years. After that the Irish Parliament - Dáil Éireann - elects a Taoiseach. So if the same government won several elections, a Taoiseach could be in power for a long time. If he resigns as Taoiseach, as Bertie Ahern did last year, a new Taoiseach can be elected. Bertie Ahern was Taoiseach for 11 years. Eamon DeValera was Taoiseach for 16 years.
