ENGINEERING PRACTICE

Building specialist capability across Ireland’s engineering sectors

Engineering represents one third of Berkley Group’s business. A specialist, deliberately invested practice that runs alongside our Life Science and Business and Technology teams and shares the same engagement model, consultant rigour and client standards.

We place specialist professionals into the engineering organisations driving Ireland’s industrial base. From capital project teams and validation specialists through to mechanical and electrical engineers, health and safety leaders and sustainability experts, we deliver the technical expertise that demanding engineering programmes rely on.

WHY BERKLEY

What makes our model different

Berkley has supported Ireland’s engineering sector for over thirty years. Our consultants operate inside the industry rather than alongside it, with the technical depth and established networks to deliver against demanding programmes at pace.

Workforce planning, not reactive hiring

We work with engineering organisations on sustained workforce planning across expansions, compliance programmes, automation initiatives and capital project lifecycles. Our engagements anticipate demand rather than respond to vacancies, which is how we mobilise specialists at pace when programmes accelerate.

Active and passive candidate access

Our established candidate networks reach beyond the active market. Many of the engineers we place are not visible to other providers because they are not actively searching, but our long-running relationships and sector-specific reach allow us to engage them on behalf of our clients.

Sector-specific technical depth

Our consultants specialise within engineering disciplines rather than working across all of them. Mechanical and electrical consultants work on M&E mandates. Validation consultants work on CQV programmes. Sustainability specialists work on ESG and decarbonisation requirements. This produces materially better matches and more confident technical assessment.
