About the employer

Its consulting practice helps clients respond to technology change, improve business performance, manage risk, and meet regulatory requirements.

In Ireland, EY has a significant presence, including offices in Dublin and other major locations, serving domestic and international clients.

Working in Ireland

Ireland offers strong opportunities in technology consulting, cybersecurity, software, financial services, pharmaceuticals, medtech, and multinational technology companies, especially in Dublin, Cork, Galway, and Limerick. The culture is generally friendly, conversational, and community-oriented, with a strong social life centred on pubs, music, sport, and local events. The lifestyle combines vibrant cities with easy access to coastlines, countryside, and historic towns, although housing costs and availability—particularly in Dublin—can be challenging. Citizens of the EU, EEA, and Switzerland can work without an employment permit. Other nationals normally need an appropriate work permit, such as the Critical Skills Employment Permit, and must meet salary and occupation requirements. Relocating candidates should research accommodation early, arrange tax and immigration documentation, and consider transport and healthcare costs. Ireland’s mild, changeable weather and relatively compact geography make travel around the island convenient.
