The record
4 employment permits in 2026 is a modest count for Irisford Ltd, but it is a count: this employer has been through the application and knows what it involves.

Permits for Irisford Ltd in 2026 arrived in bursts, 3 months in all, with June the biggest at 2.
On the Companies Registration Office register the business is Irisford Limited (company number 226917), a ltd - private company limited by shares incorporated in 1995, 31 years ago. The registered address is Parks, Woodsgift Via Thurles, Co. Kilkenny., Co. Kilkenny,kilkenny.
What this tells you
They have done it before
Even a handful of permits means Irisford Ltd has been through the application and knows the timeline. That is the hard part; the second hire is easier than the first.
How to approach them
Time it to the rhythm
This year Irisford Ltd's permits peaked in June. Hiring rounds tend to repeat, so an application a couple of months ahead of that lands when the decision is being made.
