State Boards is part of publicjobs, the centralised provider of recruitment, assessment and selection services for the Civil Service, Local Authorities, the Health Service Executive, An Garda Síochána and public bodies.
The process to identify eminently qualified candidates is open and transparent. We are privileged to support the Irish Government and our clients to deliver high-quality governance and accountability through the appointment of diverse, talented and committed board members who reflect the diversity of the society it serves.
Our work is guided by NUA, our Statement of Strategy Download NUA26 strategy.
Our Clients
We work with State Agencies; commercial, non-commercial and regulatory entities that are public sector bodies of the state and have a statutory obligation to perform specific tasks on behalf of the Government of Ireland. Whilst they come under the aegis of Government Departments, they are distinct and separate from the civil service and deliver crucial services to the Irish public, providing vital services that help influence and shape Irish society. Serving on the board of a State Agency offers you the unique opportunity to play a role in the strategic planning and direction of the agency to the benefit of the public it serves.
