Thirty new jobs are to be created in Dublin by French financial software firm Murex, it was announced today.
The new jobs, to be created over the next three years as part of an expansion plan, will be in software development, business development and consulting.
Murex employs 60 workers at its software centre on Shelbourne Road in south Dublin, established 11 years ago.
The new workers will have a combination of degree and masters qualifications in maths, engineering and computer science.
The investment is supported by the Government through IDA Ireland.
Announcing the jobs, Enterprise Minister Batt O’Keeffe described the investment as an important boost for Ireland’s information and communications technology (ICT) sector.
"It is significant that Murex, which operates in a technically challenging niche area of the software market, has chosen Ireland for expansion, adding to our strong cluster of global ICT players and acknowledging the strong track record of the Dublin workforce,’ said Minister O’Keeffe.
