 "Infosys to create 250 new technology jobs in Ireland")
“I am delighted to welcome 250 new jobs at Infosys. This is a vote of confidence in Ireland, our great workforce and our reputation as a hub for technology and innovation,” Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny said on Monday. The expansion will see the Bengaluru-headquartered firm create up to 95 roles at its first dedicated product-centric R&D centre outside India, and open a second Irish facility to house up to 155 people who will provide information technology services to Infosys clients.
The new roles are in addition to about 250 employees already working for Infosys in Ireland.
