Caroline Herlihy
Managing Director
Caroline established GPC in 2006 and she specialises in Architecture, Engineering and Construction appointments across all levels within the public and private sectors.
With her extensive experience and industry knowledge, Caroline is the foremost expert in her field of recruitment. She has the most comprehensive network of connections to ensure that all job seekers are provided with a clear market overview and a guided approach to their job search to ensure a successful career move.
After completing her BA (Hons) in Business & Marketing, she began her career in recruitment in 1998 with a leading construction recruiter in Ireland and quickly rose to Director level. In 1999 she identified a requirement to recruit overseas nationals to support the skills shortage in Ireland and the UK. During this decade she built strong and lasting relationships with clients and candidates, which has led to consistent repeat business which she still enjoys today. Caroline has worked with many of the same clients since beginning her career and has built an extensive business network.
