Recruitment Agency Belfast places permanent professional talent for Northern Ireland employers across twelve sectors. From Belfast City Centre finance controllers to Titanic Quarter engineers, from fintech founders to Derry manufacturing plants. One consultant per brief, credential-verified shortlists, one written guarantee.
We built the firm around what serious Northern Ireland hiring managers were missing from mainstream recruitment: local market fluency, credential rigour, honest package advice and one accountable consultant on every brief from intake through onboarding follow-up.
Our consultants understand the Northern Ireland employer landscape: the growing Belfast fintech cluster, Titanic Quarter tech scene, Queen’s graduate pipeline, and the traditional Belfast professional-services base. You spend the intake call describing the role, not educating us on the region.
Chartered status, professional-body membership, technical certifications, right-to-work paperwork, references. Every step done before the CV lands on your desk.
Not a stack of unfiltered CVs. Three to five candidates ranked, credential-checked, package and notice-period confirmed, our written notes on each.
The consultant who took the brief runs the search, closes the offer and calls at day thirty and day ninety. Nobody hides behind a Belfast switchboard.
Belfast salary bands sit between GB regional averages and Dublin. If the package you have in mind is under the NI market for the role, we say so on the first call.
Every permanent placement carries a written guarantee. If the hire leaves inside the window for reasons that trace back to the search, we re-run the search at no additional fee.
Role, package, timeline and must-haves agreed in one call. Written brief returned within 24 hours for your sign-off.
Active NI network plus discreet approach to passive candidates in the Belfast, Dublin cross-border and GB expat markets.
Three to five candidates, credential-checked, notice-period confirmed, our written notes on each, ranked with reasons.
Interview coordination, offer structuring, counter-offer support, onboarding follow-up at day 30 and day 90.
Depth of focus inside each sector is what makes our shortlists arrive faster and better matched than a generalist firm can manage.
