US Car Selling Website To Create 100 Jobs In Dublin
Up to 100 new jobs are to be created by automotive shopping website, CarGurus, with the establishment of its new European headquarters in Dublin.
The new office will be CarGurus' first branch outside the U.S. and will be a hub for the Inside Sales, Dealer Account Services and Technical Development teams that will build CarGurus' country-specific operations in Europe.
Announcing the new venture, Langley Steinert, CarGurus' Founder and CEO said: "It is an exciting time for CarGurus, as we grow our consumer and dealership audiences and expand the reach of our unique car shopping model around the world. Dublin gives us access to the exceptional talent we will need to propel our continued success in Europe, and we look forward to joining the vibrant tech community in this great city."
The company was introduced to Ireland through ConnectIreland, the company responsible for delivering the Government's 'Succeed in Ireland' initiative, as part of the Action Plan for Jobs, in association with IDA Ireland.
Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Richard Bruton TD added: "Today's announcement that CarGurus has decided to establish its first base outside the US and its European Headquarters in Dublin, while also creating 100 jobs, is very welcome and a real boost for the region. The Government and the IDA have worked tirelessly to attract companies to Ireland and CarGurus is among a growing number of companies who have decided to set up a European base in Ireland. This once again is a testament to the talented Irish workforce and also to Ireland as a great place to do business. I wish CarGurus and their workforce all the best for the future".
