Over the past month, Coffey has taken part in careers fairs and recruitment events across Ireland and the UK, meeting students and graduates exploring opportunities in civil engineering, construction and the broader infrastructure sector.

The company thanked everyone who visited its stand to ask questions, discuss career paths and learn more about working at Coffey, adding that it was inspiring to hear about attendees' ambitions and the different routes they are considering.

For Coffey's teams, these events are also a chance to share first-hand experience, offer practical guidance and give students a clearer picture of what day-to-day work in the industry involves. Supporting people at every stage of their careers remains a core commitment for the business, and time spent engaging, sharing knowledge and offering advice is a key part of that.

As Coffey continues to expand in Ireland and the UK, it aims to encourage more people to consider careers in infrastructure and to highlight the opportunities available. The company reiterated its thanks to everyone it met and expressed hope of welcoming some of them to the team. Those interested in graduate, placement or other roles can contact [email protected].
