More and more people in the greater Dublin area are turning their back on the city centre and commuter chaos. Instead, they are finding rewarding, well-paid jobs that further their career closer to home. One worker who came to maryb.ie to escape the rat race is financial accountant, Stephen Finn.
“I think many people can find moving jobs stressful,” Stephen says, “but maryb.ie were very professional, supportive and listened to what I wanted. They had numerous options for me there and then, and I walked away knowing that they sent my CV onto companies of my choice.”
Because maryb.ie have been in operation for over 26 year and have four local offices around Dublin, we can help place employees like Stephen closer to where they live.
For Stephen the change has been a success across the board; will a shorter commute and increased quality time at home. "I leave home at 7.30am," he says,"and am at my desk before 8 and home around 5pm, which means I can have an evening meal and spend time with my children, something which didn’t happen too often in my previous job.
“Had I realised how much better working closer to home would be, and how brilliant it would be to spend time at with my family every day, I think I would have made the change sooner. There is a huge improvement in my work life balance.
“While many folk live in suburbia and have to commute to the city centre,” Stephen continues, “I’ve found that if you have the opportunity to commute less, the improvement in the quality of life far outweighs any monetary benefit.”
maryb.ie has offices across Dublin in Fitzwilliam Place, Blanchardstown, Walkinstown and Swords and has been working with local businesses and candidates since 1981. Last year maryb.ie found permanent work for 794 Dubliners, in sectors such as Office Support, Accountancy, Banking & Finance, Sales & Marketing, Customer Service, Insurance & Legal.
