Ireland’s engineering landscape has changed dramatically over the past few years. Renewable energy targets are among the most ambitious in Europe, infrastructure investment is accelerating, and the demand for skilled engineering professionals has never been greater.
For EMBS, Ireland has quietly become one of our most active markets. We have been placing specialist engineering talent into Irish projects for some time now, supporting clients across solar development, substation construction, grid connections, and wider energy infrastructure. The volume and complexity of that work has grown steadily, and it became clear that operating remotely was no longer enough.
A permanent base on the ground was overdue. Now, we have one.
Opening a Dublin office is not just a logistical step. It is a statement of intent.
For clients, it means a recruitment partner who is physically present in the market, better connected to local networks, and able to respond with greater speed and precision to project demands. Whether you are a developer, contractor, Distribution Network Operator, or consultancy, you can expect a more hands-on, embedded service from our team.
For candidates, it means EMBS is closer to you. We understand the Irish market, the projects that are live, the employers who are hiring, and the roles that will define the next phase of your engineering career. Our Dublin presence means better conversations, better opportunities, and a team that is genuinely invested in placing you right.
The scale of what is happening in Ireland right now is hard to overstate.
Solar capacity is expanding at pace, with numerous large-scale farms progressing through planning and into construction. Grid infrastructure is under significant pressure as renewable generation ramps up, driving demand for substation engineers, protection and control specialists, and grid connection experts. Offshore wind is on the horizon, and the skills pipeline required to deliver it is already being built.
Across all of these areas, finding the right engineering talent is one of the biggest challenges facing project teams. That is exactly where EMBS comes in.
Our Dublin office will be supported by the wider EMBS team, who bring deep expertise in engineering recruitment across energy, infrastructure, and construction. We are committed to building local relationships, attending industry events, and becoming a genuine part of the Irish engineering community.
Whether you are looking to hire engineering professionals for an upcoming project, or you are an engineer exploring your next opportunity in Ireland, we would love to hear from you.
