#WVH widens your workforce to deepen your order book.
Sourcing
#WVH ensures your required apprenticeship hours on site are attained and that hiring non-EU specialists does not break the 50:50 limit.
Engagement
is via a unique hiring platform for every candidate, we source & onboard young talent inside Ireland or experienced talent from the EU / UK.
Results
for the long-term, no hiring fees & creating housing to deliver mobility. Megaprojects can last for a decade, don't accept fees that cover 10 weeks.
We solve the talent mobility problems for the people NOT IN your hiring process.
#WVH exists to source and onboard construction & infrastructure talent so as to help create the bids that score highest.
In a world of fake CV’s and a critical shortage of talent to deliver the professional accredited talent the NDP needs we focus on sourcing talent from the evidence of their engineering record in the countries that already have mutual recognition agreements with Ireland that do not require a work permit.
Where project bids require the proof of how the certified hours of early career talent will be on site, we find them, get them into training and house them near your sites.
Bean an tí, having been providing digs to learn Irish since 1904, #WVH coordinates accommodation that helps more young people get into engineering, it also can give €16,000 in cost of living income to hosts from 2027, we do this for £0.00.
The DETE 50:50 rules limits the levels of non-EU hiring you attract or pay multiple fees for. We balance this talent from insights learned from, public project files, permits and grid authorisations, tenders and contractor announcements, engineering registries, technical papers graduation data and corporate press releases from all over Europe.
We don’t attract talent into our platform we engineer it. We also do more than him.

Construction Hiring 2023-26
#WVH conducted a deep analysis drawing from DETE and LinkedIn data to analyse 1,000's of hires from 2023-26.
We got America back on the move, it is about what we know, not think...
The decline in domestic talent mobility is a global phenomenon. In 2024, US state-to-state moves hit a record low of 2%. By 2025, the US experienced negative net migration for the first time in 50 years. The need to re-start domestic talent mobility has never been higher.
We proved that when you fix people’s relocation problems at scale, they will come. Across 18 US states, #WVH re-started mobility for the advanced manufacturing sector. We moved beyond standard sourcing to solve the 'whole-family' engagement issues that traditional recruitment ignores and as you see in video are listed by CBS News as the number one talent mobility problem in the USA today.
Not many Irish Start ups start in the USA and then come to focus on their home market, but we feel there is such a strong need to be part of building Ireland 2.0
#WVH = Widens the gate, never lowers the bar!
You have seen many buildings that seek to accommodate as wide a range of your society as is possible. We don’t ask who needs to use the lift, prefers the stairs, or the circumstances that make the escalator the best choice.
#WholeVillageHiring™ fixes problems for all, around the level of insight, work life integration, housing, schooling, relocation and more. However our USP is none of these things. Our USP is that outbound hiring, is able to work with a much wider scope of talent, which can fix many problems differently to the issues too often baked in, always hiring those already on the job market.
#WVH leaves the assessment of each hiring process to each client. However, the ability to target talent who are already qualified and work in your industry / sector, reduces the level of assessment needed. We will have built this into your #WVH platform from before you even start to use it. With AI powering talent engagement, we see talent acquisition professionals spending more time with their internal hiring clients, creating a more shared model of hiring, doing the job our AI can never replace, helping them to think a little wider.
#WVH and #HireAndHouse were built by Seán Fay, a veteran recruiter and serial entrepreneur who understands the industry from the inside out. This isn't tech built by outsiders; it's built by a practitioner for practitioners. Seán was Dublin City’s First Disability Ambassador, he is hard-wired to see the danger of just faster AI automation for hiring, asking the critical question: Who is not in the room, but should be?
