What the numbers say

86 permits so far in 2026, against 99 in the whole of 2025.

Permits were issued in 9 of the 9 months published so far, which points to an ongoing hiring programme, not a one-off.

Busiest full year: 2022 with 748 permits. First year on record: 2018.

What this tells you

Hiring abroad is part of the plan here

At this scale, recruiting from outside the EEA is a deliberate strand of how Deloitte Ireland LLP staffs itself, not a stopgap. That usually means structured onboarding and colleagues who have made the same move.

How to approach them

Lead with the trade

Put the skill and the years in the first line, not the visa. Deloitte Ireland LLP has handled permits before; what it needs to know first is whether you can do the job.

The record

With 86 employment permits issued in 2026 alone, Deloitte Ireland LLP sits 30th of 7,732 on the Department's list of Irish employers hiring from outside the EEA this year.

Deloitte Ireland LLP first shows up in the figures in 2018, and across 9 years it has been issued 2,084 employment permits in all, peaking at 748 in 2022. Use has fallen over the last three full years, which can mean the roles were filled, the need passed, or hiring moved elsewhere.

The 2026 pattern is spread across the year: permits in 9 of 9 published months, busiest in August (16).

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.
