300 New Jobs Announced For Cork, Kilkenny And Dublin

Up to 300 new jobs are to be created over the next three years by CoreHR in Cork, Kilkenny and Dublin.

The jobs, which are supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation through Enterprise Ireland, are being created as part of a major expansion by the Ballincollig, Co Cork-based providers of HR software and technology, specialising in cloud-based human capital management and payroll software.

As well as its presence in Cork, the company also has offices in Dublin, Kilkenny and the UK. The majority of the new positions will be based in Cork, Kilkenny and Dublin, with additional roles in the UK.

CoreHR is inviting applications across a wide variety of roles including product and development, professional services, customer support, sales and marketing.

Welcoming the announcement, Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Mary Mitchell O'Connor, said: "Today's announcement that CoreHR, a highly innovative Irish company, is creating 300 new jobs in Cork, Dublin and Kilkenny is great news for the country. As Minister, my priority is to ensure an environment for jobs growth is developed right across the country and in particular the regions of Ireland. I believe only a strong economy supporting people at work can pay for the services needed to create a fair society. CoreHR is a great example of the type of company Enterprise Ireland is working with. I wish John Goulding and the team every success into the future."

John Goulding, Chief Executive of CoreHR, added: "This is a very exciting time for CoreHR. We have carved out a strong presence across a wide range of sectors to become a world leader at the forefront of developing innovative HR software solutions. After a number of years of strong performance, including 30% revenue growth last year, I am very much looking forward to the next stage of our success story, to expanding our talented team and to continuing our global growth strategy."
