EURES Ireland

EURES, the European Employment Services Network, set up in 1993, has been established by the European Commission to facilitate the free movement of workers within the European Union (EU)/ European Economic Area (EEA) countries.

The purpose of EURES is to provide information, advice and recruitment/placement (job-matching) services for the benefit of workers and employers as well as any citizen wishing to benefit from the principle of the free movement of persons.

At European Level, EURES is:

• a co-operation network formed by public employment services in all EU/EEA countries
• 1,000+ specially trained European EURES advisers
• European database of employment opportunities
• CV Database of European Jobseekers

In Ireland, EURES is coordinated by the European Employment Services of the Department of Social Protection (DSP).

Before leaving for Ireland, you should first look at Irish job opportunities and seek pre-departure advice and information from a EURES Adviser in your own country or one of the EURES Advisers based in Ireland.

On arrival, one of your first points of contact for assistance in securing employment and other information on Ireland should be an Irish EURES Adviser or your local Intreo office (please note a Personal Public Service (PPS) Number may be required in order to obtain any of the services offered by Intreo). EU or EEA nationals have free access to the services of the Irish employment service.

Details of vacancies in Ireland can be accessed through www.jobsireland.ie.
