Pitch N Hire's executive search helps Limerick, Ireland companies hire senior engineering and leadership roles — heads of engineering, architects, and functional leaders — through a discreet, research-led process. PNH maps the market, approaches passive candidates and runs structured assessment, so a Limerick business fills business-critical leadership roles with rigour rather than relying on inbound applications.
Executive search is a targeted, research-led method for hiring senior and hard-to-fill leadership roles, where the best candidates are usually employed and not actively applying. Instead of posting a job and waiting, Pitch N Hire maps the relevant talent market, discreetly approaches qualified passive candidates, and runs structured, evidence-based assessment against the role's real requirements. This is used for engineering leadership, architecture, and specialist senior roles where a wrong hire is expensive and confidentiality matters. PNH's search process pairs experienced recruiters with structured interview tooling to keep the assessment consistent and defensible, whether the role is based locally or leads an offshore team.
We work with you to define the mandate — responsibilities, the outcomes the leader must deliver, and the competencies and experience that predict success in your context.
PNH researches and maps the relevant talent market, building a longlist of qualified people in comparable roles at comparable organisations — including those not actively looking.
Candidates are approached confidentially and professionally, protecting your employer brand and the candidates' current positions while gauging genuine interest and fit.
Interested candidates go through structured, evidence-based interviews and scorecards against the success profile, so the shortlist is comparable and defensible, not gut-feel.
You interview a small, high-quality shortlist; we support referencing, offer negotiation and a careful close, given how much a senior hire matters.
Research-led search suits senior and business-critical roles where a mis-hire is costly:
Limerick is the commercial and technology centre of Ireland's Mid-West, with a long engineering and advanced-manufacturing heritage now feeding growth in enterprise software, analytics and shared technology services. Anchored by a large, industry-focused university and the National Technology Park at Plassey, the city sustains steady demand for software, data and manufacturing-systems engineers across regional operations and multinational back-office and R&D centres.
Limerick talent blends manufacturing and applied engineering with enterprise software, strong in Java, .NET, data, automation and systems integration, supported by a university known for its cooperative-education model and close industry links. Costs are competitive and retention is good, but demand for senior data, cloud and specialist engineers can outpace the Mid-West's local supply, prompting offshore support to keep delivery moving.
Limerick developer salaries generally run below Dublin and broadly in line with other regional Irish hubs, with senior engineers often around EUR 55k-78k. Employers scaling data, integration or delivery-heavy work often blend local Limerick hires with offshore India-based engineers through PNH to widen the talent pool and manage blended cost.
For Limerick's enterprise-software and manufacturing-systems teams, PNH provides offshore engineering capacity — vetted India-based developers and data engineers employed through an Employer of Record on Irish-hours overlap — to accelerate delivery-heavy programmes without expanding local salary commitments or setting up a new entity.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Limerick team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
