Location: Tralee (on-site, with flexibility after first year)
About Verena
Verena is a specialist resourcing and staffing firm dedicated to delivering high-caliber talent for complex, fast-moving projects particularly in digital technology, compliance, and life sciences. Founded just two years ago in Tralee, we have already built a global client base and are growing rapidly. Our team of nine permanent employees brings over 100 years of combined expertise in niche, freelance and permanent recruitment.
We are now looking to expand our team with ambitious, driven individuals who want to learn from experienced professionals and build a long-term career in recruitment.
The Opportunity
This is an exciting entry-level role designed for someone who wants to begin their career in recruitment. You will learn the business from the ground up, working closely with and being mentored by our highly experienced team.
It's a fast-paced, sales-driven environment that requires commitment, resilience, and excellent communication skills. In return, you'll gain invaluable training, structured career progression, and the opportunity to grow into a full recruiter role with significant earning potential.
Responsibilities
- Formatting candidate profiles and CVs
- Scheduling calls and interviews with candidates
- Supporting senior recruiters with daily tasks
- Searching for and shortlisting suitable candidates for roles
- Maintaining accuracy in CRM systems and administrative tasks
- Assisting with digital marketing activities, helping create engaging social media updates and supporting company brand initiatives
- Communicating professionally with senior-level candidates and clients
What We're Looking For
We don't expect you to have recruitment experience, what matters most is your mindset, drive, and communication skills.
You'll thrive in this role if you are:
- Ambitious and competitive – motivated to perform in a target-driven environment
- A strong communicator – clear, confident, and professional in both written and spoken communication
- Resilient and adaptable – eager to learn, open to feedback, and willing to push yourself
- A team player – able to support colleagues and learn from experienced mentors
- Tech-savvy – comfortable with Microsoft Office and quick to pick up new systems
We're particularly interested in candidates who have shown commitment and achievement, such as completing a degree, advancing in their current role, or excelling in competitive team sports.
What We Offer
We believe in rewarding talent and commitment. As a Junior Recruitment Associate at Verena, you'll receive:
- Generous benefits – LAYA healthcare, pension plan, and 25 days annual leave
- Performance incentives – commission and bonus structure
- Career progression – a clear pathway to becoming a full recruiter with significant earning potential
- Learning and mentorship – work alongside some of the most experienced professionals in the recruitment industry
- Hybrid flexibility – while you'll be primarily office-based in Tralee during your first year to maximize learning, flexibility will be offered as you progress
