“The Irish National Refugees Centre (INRC) is a charity that helps refugees and migrants in their integration in the Republic of Ireland. In the last fifteen years the number of immigrants increased drastically and consequently INRC had to double the number of employees to adapt to this new reality. Because of that the organisation has plans to re-design its structure what involves the creation of several senior management posts in the next five years.”
