US pharma firm to create 400 jobs at Dublin facility

Up to 400 jobs are to be created with the expansion of a US pharmaceutical firm in Dublin.

Bristol-Myers Squibb said the manufacturing roles will be based at a newly-built factory in Cruiserath, in the west of the county.

Earlier this year, the company said it was closing an existing facility at the site with the loss of 130 jobs — and a further 30 lay-offs at its plant in Swords, north Dublin.
