60 News Jobs To Be Created In Galway
60 new jobs are to be created in Galway by US company Ipswitch, who will establish Europe Middle East and Africa (EMEA) support and operations centre in the city.
Ipswitch will establish research and development, sales and technical support teams to help serve local customers and grow market shares in the region. Ipswitch will also locate R&D and product development teams in Galway to provide capability specific to the EMEA region. The move will enable Ipswitch to greatly increase its support for its channel partners and customers across Europe in local languages and time zones.
The development is supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise & Innovation through IDA Ireland.
The privately owned company which has its headquarters in Lexington, Massachusetts, employs over 300 people in offices in the US, Europe, Asia and Latin America.
Minister for Jobs, Enterprise & Innovation Richard Bruton said: "I am delighted to welcome Ipswitch Inc. to Galway. Their announcement that they are establishing an operations centre in Galway supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation through IDA is great news for the region. This highlights once again the potential of different regional centres to attract companies based on that region's talented local workforce and strong supportive environment for business. I wish Ipswitch Inc. and their workforce all the best for their future in Ireland."
Diane Albano, Ipswitch Chief Revenue Officer and Executive Vice President Worldwide Sales, added: "We are very excited to take this next step in our company's growth by creating a full-service Ipswitch office in Europe. From this headquarters and with all the crucial necessary functions including Sales, R&D and post-sales services, we will increase the competitive advantage for both our partners and Ipswitch, and most importantly we will develop a better understanding and higher degree of support for our most valuable asset: our customers."
