Our story
Our story started in 1998 in Dublin, Ireland, but we really got going as international recruitment consultants just five years ago. We’ve always aimed to use technology to improve recruitment, which tended to be high-effort and low-quality. Five years ago we found the final piece of our puzzle in the form of an automatic call-scheduling tool, and since then we’ve become the future of recruitment agencies.
We’ve gone from 12 people in a room in Dublin to being an international recruitment agency with a specialist Life Sciences Recruitment Consultancy branch, with offices in seven countries and a team living in 12 different countries. As a leading recruitment consultancy in Dublin and Ireland, we make permanent, contract and temporary/contingent placements in IT, Finance, Pharma across the many countries we are in and more.
