CITRIX SYSTEMS Ireland says it is to increase its workforce by up to 30 full-time employees.
The company, the headquarters of customer technical support for Europe Middle East and Africa (EMEA) , says these posts are in addition to the 20 new jobs announced late last year and will support the growth of Citrix’s technical services business in the region. The latest jobs in technical support, training, engineering and sales will take employment numbers to 150.
John Kelly, the region’s senior director of technical support, said: “It is testament to the hard work, commitment and innovation of our existing EMEA technical support team who have consistently executed and delivered high quality results. Through this we have secured additional investment and are able to announce the creation of these new positions.
IDA Ireland chief executive Barry O’Leary added: “The announcement by Citrix of an additional jobs expansion, following on from the 20 new jobs announced last year, is welcome news for Ireland’s ICT sector.”
Citrix was founded in 1989.
