The Vertical Markets Group was founded in 2008 and has since developed into six industry specific recruiting brands, Life Science Recruitment, Capital Markets, IT Search, HR Search, Design Build Search and A+F Recruitment.

Our founding philosophy was to create a multi vertical staffing consultancy totally focussed on our customers experience. Our digital and off line presence combined sets us apart from our competition. Vertical Markets Group has over 20 live industry specific websites, creating a more visible and accessible platform for our customers to engage with. We have combined this with three core principles; hire the best people, invest in the right Environment and offer everyone a clear opportunity to develop.

We value authenticity, this is evidenced across our brands, for example, the Life Science brand is made up of scientists and engineers who recruit into and only for the Life science sector. This has proven to be refreshing for our clients and candidates alike, across all of our brands, where we employ the same strategy. Although based in Ireland our model is purposefully focussed on both the domestic and International markets, equally. Resulting in a business where nearly 40% of the groups income is derived from countries other than Ireland.

The core values of the Group are Trust, Accountability, Innovation, Diversity & Inclusion and Sustainability.
