About JobVacancies.ie

Connecting Irish Employers with Talented Professionals Since 2010

JobVacancies.ie is Ireland’s premier job search platform, dedicated to connecting employers with the right talent and helping job seekers find meaningful career opportunities across the country.

Our Story

JobVacancies.ie was founded in 2010 by a team of HR professionals and tech entrepreneurs who recognized a gap in the Irish job market. In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, they saw the need for a more efficient, user-friendly platform that could better connect Irish employers with qualified candidates.

What began as a small startup with just five employees has grown into one of Ireland’s most trusted employment resources, serving thousands of companies and job seekers across the country. From our humble beginnings in a small office in Dublin, we’ve expanded to become a nationwide service with a team of dedicated professionals working to improve the recruitment experience for everyone involved.

Over the years, we’ve continuously evolved our platform, incorporating the latest technologies and responding to the changing needs of the Irish job market. Through economic ups and downs, we’ve remained committed to our core mission: making the job search and hiring process more efficient, transparent, and successful for all parties.

From Our Founder

“When we started JobVacancies.ie, we had a simple goal: to create a platform that truly understood the unique needs of the Irish job market. We wanted to build something that wasn’t just another job board, but a comprehensive resource that would support both employers and job seekers throughout the entire employment journey. Fourteen years later, I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished and the thousands of successful career matches we’ve facilitated across Ireland.”

— Sarah O’Connor, Founder & CEO
