Protection services firm to create 20 jobs in Carlow
Netwatch is to create 20 new jobs at its communications hub in Carlow.
The company currently employs 130 staff. It monitors in excess of 25,000 security cameras across the globe.
Netwatch is expanding its operations in the US market with the opening of a second office in New York .
David Walsh, group CEO of Netwatch said: “Since opening our Boston office in 2012, we have gained a reputation for providing state of the art protection services to clients across the East Coast.
“Netwatch has invested heavily in R&D which gives us a real edge in the competitive US market.
“Our American clients appreciate that we are never constrained by ‘accepted norms’ and that we are always looking for new technologies to improve our business and the service we offer to our clients.”
“Over the last few months we have gained a number of large clients in the New York and New Jersey area including Pinnacle Environmental and Nikon Metrology.
“This office is a natural progression for our business in the US. The new office has space for up to 30 people and we have plans to fill it over the next 18 months.
“Growth in the US also means growth for our Irish operations, as all monitoring will be undertaken by intervention specialists based in our Carlow Communications Hub.
“For every 50 contracts we win in the US, we create 10 new jobs in Carlow.”
