There are approximately 110,000+ engineering professionals in Ireland, as of 2024.
There is a growing demand for qualified engineers in Ireland, with a focus on process engineering, production engineering and automation engineering. This is due to the increased growth in the pharmaceutical and medical device sectors. There has also been an upturn in the construction industry with companies growing their operations. This has subsequently led to an increased demand for skills in this sector.
Professionals looking to relocate back to Ireland from abroad to take up new opportunities in the engineering sector which shows real confidence in the market. As a result of this we have seen many companies introducing relocation benefits into their overall package in order to attract the best of the returning talent.
