Would like to relocate to Ireland and work

Hi all! Great message board here. Hoping to get some advice or guidance on my best options. I currently work for a large consulting business and have a wealth of experience in 'management consulting'. I've looked for jobs in Ireland for quite some time and my skills are in demand there (specifically, certifications I hold). I have no family connections to Ireland but I'm wondering what the best approach is to find an employer to sponsor me. My company does not operate there so that's not an option. Should I keep applying and hope I get lucky, or should I just bite the bullet, move there for three months and then search hard while in country? I can take about US$50K with me, but prefer not to spend it all searching for a job! Any advice on what the best approach is? I really love the country, the people and culture. By the way, I'm a US citizen. Thanks!
