Ireland’s leading jobs and employment fair, Jobs Expo, returns to Dublin’s Croke Park on Saturday 22 October and is set to be bigger and better than ever before.

Event organisers, Careers Unlimited, have released their exhibitor and speaker lists for the event, which is expected to attract thousands of professional jobseekers.. A wide range of Irish and multinational companies, covering a variety of industries, are recruiting at the event. These include education, financial services, marketing, pharmaceutical, construction, engineering, retail sales, healthcare, tourism and hospitality.

In a new development for Jobs Expo, Saturday’s event will have two new, dedicated areas – the Education Village and the STEM Sector. The Education Village will host a number of education recruitment agencies looking to fill teacher posts around the world. Exhibitors will include UK teacher specialists, Hourglass Education, New Zealand’s Education Personnel, and international recruiters World Teachers and SeekTeachers.

Here, attendees will find some of the most prestigious international and national STEM employers. Employers taking part include Boston Scientific, B/E Aerospace, Alkermes, VWR International, Suir Engineering and Adaptive HVM.

The Government of the Isle of Man will also be there, highlighting the variety of career opportunities on the island.

“We are really delighted with the mix of companies taking part in this October’s Jobs Expo. There is a huge range of industries and opportunities. If you are a recent graduate or a school leaver, highly skilled, unemployed, returning to the workforce or looking for your next challenge, there’ll be something for you,” says organiser Kevin Branigan of Careers Unlimited.

In addition to employers recruiting at the event, there will be a series of talks from industry insiders on the Expo’s Agenda Stage, with all seminars and talks being sponsored by the National Ambulance Service.
