In Ireland, the firm has a significant presence in Dublin and other locations, supporting public and private-sector clients with audit, business consulting, digital transformation, finance, technology and sustainability projects.

Working in Ireland

Ireland offers strong opportunities in technology, consulting, financial services, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, engineering and multinational operations, particularly in Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick. The workplace culture is generally collaborative, relationship-focused and relatively informal, with English used widely. Ireland combines lively cities, historic towns, coastal scenery and easy access to outdoor activities. Dublin has the broadest employment market but also the highest rents and a competitive housing market; researching accommodation early is essential. EU, EEA and Swiss citizens can work without a visa. Most non-EU nationals need an employment permit, commonly a Critical Skills Employment Permit for eligible professional roles, followed by immigration registration. Candidates should confirm sponsorship, salary thresholds and permit eligibility before accepting an offer. Public transport is strongest in major cities, while a car is useful in rural areas. Ireland’s mild, changeable weather and friendly social culture suit many international arrivals.
