IFDS To Create 75 New Jobs
International Financial Data Services (IFDS) is recruiting for over 75 jobs in Ireland.
The project is supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation through IDA Ireland.
The roles, covering financial technology, project/change management, and administration, will be filled throughout 2015 and will be based in Dublin. This news comes as IFDS celebrates its twentieth year in Europe. Since inception, the business has grown from two to 200 clients, including many of the largest and most recognisable financial services brands around the globe.
In Ireland, IFDS employs more than 550 people, up from 125 in 2007. Overall staffing levels in Europe have risen from 1,600 to over 5,000 in the past 10 years. The company has eight offices, with locations in Ireland, Luxembourg, and the United Kingdom, with a wider group network in Austria, France, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland via parent organisation State Street.
The Minister for Jobs Richard Bruton TD said: "International financial services is a key sector which we have targeted as part of our Action Plan for Jobs, and we have put in place a range of new measures to support growth in this area. Last week our new Minister of State with specific responsibility for this area, Simon Harris, launched a new strategy aimed at creating 10,000 additional jobs in this sector. The announcement that IFDS, a world-leading company in its specific sector, is creating 75 extra jobs in Ireland is a further boost for the area, and I look forward to more announcements like this in the coming months and years."
