Responsible Business Lead, Mc Cann Fitzgerald

Originally from India, I relocated to Ireland two years ago after getting married to my partner who has been based here for the last six years. Not long after I got here, I was hired by McCann FitzGerald LLP as a Business Development Executive. Living and working in Ireland has been a rewarding experience, both professionally and personally. At first it seemed challenging, having to adapt to a new culture, build new relationships, create new routines (let’s not talk about getting used to the weather), but the welcoming nature of the people made this move easy.

The economy here is buzzing, and there are plenty of businesses and career opportunities. The luck of the Irish rings true when it comes to quality of life. Balancing work and life is not just a concept here; it’s a reality. People here emphasise on the importance of quality time outside the office.

Ireland’s central location has been a game-changer, allowing me to easily explore the beauty of numerous countries. Each day brings a sense of adventure, whether it’s discovering new landscapes, immersing in local traditions, or building meaningful connections within the vibrant community.

The country’s charm, the warmth of its people, and a great work-life balance make it more than just a place to stay; it’s become a home away from home. The experience of living in this captivating country has been nothing short of amazing.
