CASABLANCA & DUBLIN, 20th August 2026: Recruit.ie and Jobs Expo Ireland, leaders in Irish recruitment exhibitions for over 14 years, have expanded into North Africa with JOBEXPO.MA. Following its second Casablanca edition on 25th of July 2026 at The Venue Downtown, the platform is positioning Casablanca as a primary tech talent hub for Irish and international multinationals looking to scale high-performing teams across software engineering, IT infrastructure, and emerging technologies.

Under the leadership of Founder and CEO Bronagh Cotter, who brings over 30 years of recruitment expertise, including 15 years with Careers Unlimited Ireland, the company has evolved from running Ireland’s premier careers fairs (Jobs Expo, Biz Expo, and Construction Jobs Expo) into an international talent bridge.

Recognizing a gap in access to North Africa’s rapidly expanding tech ecosystem, Cotter spearheaded the development of JOBEXPO.MA to seamlessly connect global tech corporations with pre-screened Moroccan software engineers, developers, and tech specialists seeking remote, hybrid, or visa-sponsored roles.

"Morocco has an exceptionally qualified, highly educated talent pool in technology and engineering," said Bronagh Cotter, CEO and Founder of Recruit.ie and JOBEXPO.MA. "Global tech employers face severe talent shortages, yet struggle to access North Africa through conventional channels. Over the past 14 years in Ireland, we built a trusted recruitment ecosystem. Expanding into Morocco allows us to offer tech companies direct, vetted access to Casablanca's tech hub through an AI-driven platform built specifically for modern hiring."

Supported by the Embassy of Ireland in Rabat and selected as part of Morocco 300 at GITEX Africa 2026, the JOBEXPO.MA platform offers international employers direct access to a database of qualified tech candidates.

Key delivery leads include:

  • Debayan Chattoraj, General Manager: Oversees operational delivery across Ireland and Morocco, holding an MSc from UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School and PRINCE2 Agile certification.
  • Mohssine Bencaga, Tech & Growth Operations Manager: Directs technical operations and LLM-driven platform infrastructure, bringing operational leadership from TikTok MENA and an MBA from Université Moulay Ismaïl.
