EMC adds 200 jobs to workforce in Cork thanks to ‘skills and talent’

American global giant EMC is adding another 200 jobs to its 1,800-strong workforce in Cork due to this country’s “enterprise-facing environment and skilled talent”.

The jobs will be in the engineering, customer support, sales, finance, research and development and IT sectors and will be based at the new EMC office in Citygate, Mahon, which is due to open in August.

EMC’s president and chief operating officer, David Goulden, said Irish “skills and talents rank about the best in the world” and that is why they are investing another €100m in Cork.
