Why These European Jobs Stand Out

Our European roles are designed to attract and retain top talent. Depending on the project, packages may include:

  • Generous tax-free living away allowance, paid in addition to salary
  • Single-occupancy accommodation, with all utility bills covered
  • Fortnightly return flights
  • In-country transport provided
  • Structured rotation schedules
  • Attractive expat tax incentives, available for up to 10 years (subject to eligibility)
  • Opportunities to work on one of Europe’s largest data centre developments
  • Long-term projects secured to 2030 and beyond

These are not short-term site roles — they are career-defining European positions.

Who We Are – Breagh Recruitment

Breagh Recruitment is an Irish-owned recruitment consultancy specialising in construction, engineering and mission-critical infrastructure across Ireland and mainland Europe.

We partner exclusively with established Tier 1 contractors and major M&E firms, ensuring:

  • Financially secure employers

  • Professionally managed sites

  • Clear progression pathways

Our consultants work closely with candidates throughout the entire process — from initial application through relocation, onboarding and ongoing support while working in Europe.

Construction Worker

European Locations We Recruit For

We currently recruit for live and upcoming projects across:

  • Germany

  • Netherlands

  • Belgium

  • Sweden

  • Finland

  • Portugal

  • Ireland

Many roles are English-speaking, particularly within data centres, MEP, commissioning and design teams.

Built for Long-Term Careers, Not Short Contracts

Many of our European projects are part of multi-billion-euro programmes already funded and secured for the next decade. This provides candidates with:

  • Job stability

  • Opportunities to move between phases and sites

  • Clear progression into senior or management roles

Several contractors offer international career paths beyond Europe for top performers.

How the Application Process Works

  1. Apply for a live role or submit your CV

  2. Confidential discussion with a Breagh Recruitment consultant

  3. Detailed briefing on project, package and rotation

  4. Interview process and offer

  5. Relocation, onboarding and ongoing support
