30 new tech jobs announced for Cork
Thirty new technology-based positions will come on stream in Cork over the next two years.
Global Reviews, a leader in data analytics and market intelligence technology, will set up it's European headquarters here in Ireland.
The company says it chose Cork because of the calibre of the local workforce and ease of access to European markets.
The project is being supported by the IDA and the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Employment.
“Big data is a sector which we have supported as part of our Action Plan for Jobs, and we put in place a number of measures to target opportunities, including establishing a technology centre in this area," Jobs Minister Richard Bruton said.
"Today’s announcement by Global Reviews shows the possibilities that exist in this sector. Here is a leading research and marketing company, using big data to improve its service, establishing a European HQ in Cork and 30 jobs.
"I wish them every success with this project and look forward to future growth."
"We chose Cork because of the city’s positive energy, the calibre of the local workforce, the fact that we have secured many Ireland based clients in the insurance, banking and retail ecommerce markets, as well as the ease of access to European markets," said Nicholas Greig, European Regional Director, Global Reviews.
“We will be building an experienced team to support the continued growth of our pioneering consumer experience syndicated programmes.
"Our team in Cork will work closely with our head office in Melbourne and regional office in London.”
