Your hardest mechanical engineering roles… filled.

The problem

You don't need more CVs.

You need the right engineer.

Roles stay open for months. Projects slow down. Your team carries the pressure.

The solution

We deliver pre-qualified mechanical engineers for pharma and medtech roles.

No noise. No wasted interviews.

How it works

1. Tell us the role

2. We source & screen candidates

3. You receive a shortlist

4. You only pay if you hire

What "pre-qualified" means

Before anyone reaches your shortlist, we check:

• Salary aligned with your band
• Notice period confirmed
• Relevant regulated/plant exposure (GMP/validation where required)
• Interview availability confirmed

Roles we cover

• Mechanical engineers
• Mechanical project managers
• Reliability / maintenance engineers
• Validation engineers

By location: Cork · Dublin · Galway

Hiring challenges

If you're struggling to fill roles or timelines are slipping:

• Mechanical engineer role not filling
• Engineering roles taking too long
• Hiring engineers in Ireland (pharma & medtech)

Hiring now?

We focus on mechanical project managers, senior mechanical engineers, and reliability / maintenance engineers in pharma and medtech in Ireland. For urgent roles, a 48-hour shortlist may be possible — we'll confirm once we have your brief.

Why this role is difficult to fill

Mechanical engineering roles in pharma and medtech need a mix that's in short supply: strong technical depth plus GMP or validation exposure. Many engineers have one but not the other. Niche skills — project delivery in regulated environments, maintenance in cleanrooms — narrow the pool further.

Candidates who fit often aren't actively applying. They need to be reached and approached. That's why job boards alone rarely deliver the right shortlist.

Market insight

Roles in this space often stay open for months. Hiring cycles in pharma and medtech tend to be long, and the number of engineers with relevant regulated-environment experience is limited. Delays in hiring push out project timelines and put pressure on existing teams.

Companies that get a pre-qualified shortlist — rather than a pile of CVs — tend to move faster from brief to offer.

Frequently asked questions

Why are these roles hard to fill?

The combination of mechanical engineering depth and pharma/medtech (GMP, validation) experience is niche. Many candidates don't have both, and the right people aren't always on job boards.

How quickly can you provide candidates?

We typically come back within 24 hours after your brief. A first shortlist often follows within days; for urgent roles we may be able to work to a 48-hour shortlist.

Do candidates have GMP or validation experience?

We screen for regulated-environment exposure where it's required. Pre-qualified means we check fit, salary band, notice period, and availability before they reach your shortlist.
