An Irish platform for people who need work to bend around life
Ireland Remote Job is a Galway-based company connecting people across Ireland with flexible, verified online tasks and pay they can count on.
Built from a very ordinary problem
Our founders kept meeting the same people: carers, students, parents and rural workers who wanted to earn but couldn't sign up to fixed shifts or a commute. The jobs existed — the access didn't.
So we built a task board that any client has to pass vetting to join, published every rate up front, and committed to paying the same day the work is approved. Six years later that's still the whole model.
What we hold ourselves to
Transparency first
Every task shows its rate, time estimate and payout date before you accept it.
People over volume
We'd rather have fewer, better-paid tasks than flood the board with filler.
Independence
You choose your hours, your task types, and how much you take on each week.
Community
Members mentor newcomers in our forum and at meetups around the country.
Keep it simple
No jargon, no CVs, no interview panels — just clear work and clear pay.
