The job of creating Executive Hire News and the Executive Hire Show involves a great deal of travel within mainland UK, as well as networking like seasoned professionals, and attending specialist tradeshows such as Plantworx, Vertikal Days and Hillhead.
Speaking of the latter, ‘CQMS' is Ireland’s version of the same, being a large-scale construction and quarry machinery event. It has been on our radar for some time, but this year - editorial schedules and Ryanair allowing – we’ll finally be attending!
CQMS ‘25 runs from June 13-14, taking place at Molloy’s Quarry in Tullamore, Co Offaly. The event itself covers 100,000sqm, with 200 exhibitors, thousands of visitors and two live demonstration zones – including the spectacular ‘Big Push’ bulldozer push. Machinery launches will also be in order, and visitors will have the chance to win a €50,000 worth of show credit to be spent with exhibitors. Tickets are available from https://cqms.ie/ or Eventbrite, with free entry for children accompanied by an adult.
