Recruitment in Clare

No. We cover Clare from our head office at Unit 1B Cleaboy Business Park, Old Kilmeaden Road, Waterford, X91 DVY8, roughly two hours by road from Ennis. Our recruiters travel to meet Clare clients.

Over 25 years. Hartley People was founded in 2001 and is still headquartered in Waterford, alongside our Dublin office. We’re a Munster-headquartered group recruiting across Ireland.

Rather than make that claim for ourselves, we’d point to what’s verifiable: 25+ years recruiting across Ireland, a Munster head office, and a track record in the engineering, manufacturing and medtech disciplines Shannon depends on. We don’t have a Clare office, so judge any agency on its own history and presence, not marketing copy.

We recruit across 19 specialisms in Clare, including Life Sciences, Manufacturing, Engineering, Technology, Accountancy & Finance, HR, Sales, Construction, Logistics & Supply Chain and Executive Appointments, reflecting the industries that actually drive employment in the county.

Yes. We recruit across Ennis, Shannon, Sixmilebridge, Newmarket-on-Fergus, Kilrush, Kilkee, Ennistymon, Lahinch, Killaloe, Scarriff and Tulla, and into the wider commuter market including Limerick City, Nenagh, Gort and Galway.

Yes. Shannon’s aviation cluster covers leasing, maintenance, component repair and aviation services, and we recruit the engineering, quality, finance and commercial roles those businesses depend on.

Yes. Clare’s medtech base is centred on Shannon, and medtech recruitment (quality, validation, regulatory, engineering and manufacturing roles) is work we do every day across Munster.

It depends on the seniority of the role and how niche the requirement is. We’ll give you a realistic timeline once we understand what the hire needs to achieve.
