This growth presents fantastic opportunities for all the engineers on our team.
6. Great City
You don’t have to compromise on the quality of the city you live in either, as Limerick is a great place to live. You will be close to Shannon airport, shopping in Limerick is excellent, and we have great restaurants, bars, and clubs.
