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 SFDC Ireland Limited 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. SFDC Ireland Limited has handled permits before; what it needs to know first is whether you can do the job.

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.
