Working in Ireland

Ireland offers strong opportunities in financial services, insurance, technology, consulting, pharmaceuticals and professional services, with Dublin as the main employment hub. Irish workplaces are generally collaborative and informal, and communication is direct but friendly. The country provides a good lifestyle, with vibrant cities, historic towns, coastal scenery and easy access to outdoor activities. Dublin has the widest range of jobs but also the highest rents; Cork, Galway and Limerick can offer a somewhat lower cost of living. Non-EU/EEA and non-Swiss nationals normally need an employment permit and, depending on nationality and duration, an entry visa. Highly skilled roles may qualify for a Critical Skills Employment Permit, subject to salary and occupation requirements. Relocating candidates should arrange accommodation early, obtain a PPS number, open a bank account and understand healthcare, taxation and transport costs. Ireland’s weather is mild but changeable, with frequent rain.
