PayPal set to create 100 jobs

GLOBAL online payments company PayPal has announced the creation of 100 jobs at its European centre in Dublin.

PayPal, which already employs 950 people at its Blanchardstown site, said the positions are permanent and are in customer service and operations. They are looking for people fluent in English and a second European language.

The announcement comes just six months after the official launch of PayPal’s European Centre of Excellence by Taoiseach Brian Cowen in March. At that point PayPal announced an investment of €15 million to support the development of the company’s Dublin offices into a European centre of excellence.
