If you’re exploring a meaningful new career path, mark your calendar for Saturday 8 November 2025 — the date when Jobs Expo Limerick returns to Thomond Park and brings together top employers and talent. Among the exhibitors you’ll want to visit is Fiosrú — Ireland’s independent statutory body for police oversight. Their recruitment presence at the fair is a unique opportunity for those interested in investigations, compliance, public service, and making a real impact.
Here are some compelling reasons to pay them a visit:
Fiosrú is an independent oversight organisation, established under the Policing, Security and Community Safety Act 2024. It replaced Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (GSOC) in April 2025, giving it expanded powers to handle complaints against the Garda Síochána, investigate serious incidents (including death or serious harm) and recommend systemic reforms.
The roles available cover a variety of functions: casework, investigations, administration and more — so whether you’re drawn to policy, public administration or field investigation you’ll find relevant tracks.
Working with Fiosrú means you’ll be part of reinforcing transparency, accountability and trust in policing in Ireland. It offers a career with societal impact, not just a job.
The organisation is relatively new (as of 2025) which means lots of opportunity for growth, influence and being part of shaping how it works in future.
When you visit Fiosrú’s stand, you’ll have the chance to:
Learn about which roles are open now (for example Investigations Officer – Higher Executive Officer) and what the specific requirements are.
Get clarity on what a typical day looks like in a role at Fiosrú: casework load, investigations process, working with external agencies, administration, sometimes field work.
Ask about training and support: especially critical for posts that involve investigations, legal/regulatory work, and public-service standards.
Understand the culture and career path: as a statutory body you’ll likely have strong frameworks, team-based work, and opportunities to build expertise in public oversight.
Here are some tips to make the most of your time with them:
Bring a crisp, up-to-date CV, tailored if possible to skills like investigation, analysis, regulatory or administrative work.
Do some background research: visit Fiosrú’s careers page and appreciate their mission of oversight and public trust.
Prepare 2-3 questions you can ask: e.g.,
“What are the key skills you look for in an Investigations Officer at Fiosrú?”
“What does the induction/training process look like?”
“How does Fiosrú measure success in its oversight role?”
Think about your value-add: What past experiences or skills (investigative, administrative, analytical, working with public bodies) do you bring? How do you feel aligned with the mission of transparency and accountability?
Dress smart-casual or business-casual, be ready to make a positive impression.
Arrive early to the Expo (10 am start) so you can talk to them before things get very busy.

If you’re passionate about investigations, oversight, public administration, or simply want a career that makes a difference, this could be the role for you.
