Our Story

Trainyxa started in 2018 from a small office in Ballyconnell with a big idea — to revolutionize how people approach career development through genuine human connections. We've grown from a team of three friends to Ireland's leading referral-based career platform, but we've kept our heart: helping people find opportunities through real relationships, not just algorithms.

What makes us different? We don't just match skills to jobs — we build communities where mentorship happens naturally and opportunities grow from conversations. Our approach has helped thousands of professionals find not just jobs, but careers they love.

Our Mission & Vision

At Trainyxa, we believe everyone deserves a career that brings both fulfillment and success. Our mission is to create meaningful connections that transform professional paths through the power of trusted referrals.

We're working toward a future where finding career opportunities doesn't rely on endless applications and faceless algorithms. Instead, we're building a world where your next career move comes through meaningful relationships and personal recommendations.

Our approach combines innovative technology with human-centered design, but we never forget that behind every profile is a person with unique dreams and potential. That's why we've designed our platform to nurture genuine community connections that lead to life-changing opportunities.

Founder & CEO

Michael started Trainyxa after 15 years in recruitment, where he saw how personal connections led to the best career matches. His vision was simple: build technology that strengthens professional relationships rather than replacing them. When he's not working, you'll find him hiking in Cavan's countryside or coaching his local GAA team.
