Working for Parexel means being part of a process that helps improve human health and contributes to the development of a therapy that will ultimately benefit a patient. If that thought excites you, Parexel is the place to be. Ireland has a thriving pharmaceutical R&D and manufacturing industry - and its Europe's largest net exporter of medicines (placing Ireland as the 3rd largest exporter of medicines in the world). The top 10 pharmaceutical companies have facilities based in Ireland, which makes Dublin the most ideal location for client meetings and internal gatherings.

Parexel Ireland's office is beside the Hilton Hotel and surrounded by cultural spots including Kilmainham Goal Museum, (a former prison that opened in 1796 which held notable political prisoners and leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising) and the Irish Museum of Modern Art (Ireland's leading national institution for the collection and presentation of modern and contemporary art).
