Fragomen Grows Irish Operations with New Cork Office

Fragomen, the world’s leading provider of immigration services, has opened a second office in Ireland, expanding its footprint to better serve clients across the southern region. The new Cork office strengthens Fragomen’s ability to offer locally informed support in areas where demand for global mobility services is growing.

Cork is fast becoming a hub for business and innovation. Its vibrant ecosystem—spanning life sciences, technology, financial services and cybersecurity—along with strong international links and deep local talent, makes it a strategic location for domestic and multinational companies.

Fragomen’s second Irish office is led by Practice Leader Claire Cumiskey and supported by Ireland Managing Partner Ángel Bello-Cortés, working closely with the firm’s leadership to deliver integrated, high-quality support across Ireland.

To celebrate the opening, Fragomen hosted a drinks reception at its new Cork office on 18 June. Managing Partner for Europe George Koureas, Ireland Managing Partner Ángel Bello-Cortés and Practice Leader Claire Cumiskey, along with members of the Cork team, welcomed clients, business leaders and local stakeholders for an evening of networking and discussion on the region’s growing role in global mobility.

“Cork offers a unique combination of a business-friendly environment and a highly skilled workforce,” said Bello-Cortés. “As companies increasingly look to expand beyond traditional hubs, Cork’s strategic location and dynamic sectors make it an ideal base for driving international growth and fostering innovation.”

“This move is part of Fragomen’s strategy to expand in critical regional hubs where global mobility and local insights intersect. With a stronger presence in Cork, the firm is poised to deliver even more targeted and responsive support for clients navigating increasingly complex international mobility needs,” noted Koureas.

“This region boasts exceptional talent, and positioning a team in Cork underscores our commitment to investing in people and delivering best-in-class service,” added Cumiskey. “We look forward to building deeper partnerships with clients and the local community as we continue to expand our footprint.”
