VANRATH was founded in 2000 by Wayne Sullivan, a qualified accountant, when he discovered that professional recruitment services for accountants was not quite the experience he had expected. This was the ‘light-bulb’ moment that encouraged him to start a recruitment agency like no other.

The goal was to recruit in the same way, and to the same standard, that an employer would recruit into their own business to ensure the client would get exactly what they required.

VANRATH’s first official home was on the 6th floor of Lesley Suites in Belfast City Centre which enabled the business to hit the ground running with the establishment of our Accountancy Recruitment Team.

IT recruitment was VANRATH’s next big venture, and by 2004 the team had grown into the largest IT recruitment business in Northern Ireland.

In 2019, VANRATH secured a significant stake-holder investment from prominent Mercedes business owner and property investor Neil McKibbin FCA - who, as of 2024, has acquired 100% of the VANRATH business!

As the business continued to grow, naturally the team also expanded and the need for additional office space was identified, which was when we bought Victoria House.

This growth has been, and continues to be, supported through significant investment in marketing, our team and our clients and candidates. We look forward to what the next 24 years will bring.

Glenn found me an assignment matching my skill set in a better way, and this was after I applied online for a totally different role on a totally different platform for a totally different organisation! This excellent first time experience of the VANRATH agency for me was a five star experience. I highly recommend you register with VANRATH, whether you are a potential job seeker or a potential employer, they really know what they are doing! and I have had much agency experience and all agencies are definitely NOT EQUAL.
