Check Byrne Mech Ltd's own careers page and the job boards, apply with an Irish-style CV, and be clear in the first message that you would need an employment permit and that you know what that involves.
The record
The Department's figures show 11 employment permits issued to Byrne Mech Ltd in 2026, which places it 439th of 7,732 employers nationally and makes it a regular rather than an occasional user of the system.
Since 2022 the count stands at 35 permits across 5 years. The high point was 2026, with 11. The direction over the last three full years is upward, which usually means a growing operation or a shift towards recruiting abroad by design.
Permits were issued to Byrne Mech Ltd in 5 of the 9 months published so far this year, the rhythm of an employer with an ongoing hiring programme. May was the busiest month with 4.

For candidates
What you need to work here
- A job offer and a contract of employment signed by you and the employer before anything is submitted. Applications must reach the Department at least 12 weeks before the start date.
- The right permit for the job. Most trades and driving roles go through a General Employment Permit, which is issued for 2 years and can be renewed. Roles on the Critical Skills list use a Critical Skills Employment Permit.
- Pay at or above the minimum for the permit. For a General Employment Permit the Department currently lists it as generally EUR 36,605 a year, with lower figures for meat processing, horticulture, healthcare assistants and home support. Check the official figure for your role before you rely on it.
