How TradeLink works

A simple, transparent way to hire apprentices and qualified tradespeople across Ireland — without the noise of job boards or the cost of recruiters.

  • TradeLink sources candidates directly

    TradeLink actively sources apprentices and qualified tradespeople across Ireland — you don't have to advertise or chase applications.

  • Every candidate is screened

    TradeLink speaks to candidates before introducing them, so you only meet people who are genuinely available, reliable and interested in the role.

  • You only see suitable matches

    TradeLink matches based on your trade, location and the level of experience you requested — no irrelevant CVs to sift through.

  • No upfront costs

    There is no fee to register an enquiry, and no subscription. You will never be charged simply for using TradeLink.

  • No obligation to hire

    If none of the candidates TradeLink introduces are right for you, you owe TradeLink nothing. You're never pressured to make a hire.

  • €350 success fee — only when you hire

    The single €350 success fee is payable only after you successfully hire a candidate introduced through TradeLink.

  • Save time on hiring

    TradeLink reduces the hours you'd spend writing job ads, reviewing unsuitable CVs and chasing candidates manually.
