Lack of office space stunts Cork job creation

The head of one of the country’s fastest growing indigenous businesses has said that the lack of top-quality office space in Cork City has forced his company to locate a number of new positions elsewhere in Ireland.

Dan Kiely, chief executive of multilingual business process outsourcing company Voxpro, said that the company will soon reach capacity in his native city, preventing the company from creating additional employment in Cork.

The company, founded by Mr Kiely and his wife, Linda employs 700 people in three locations in Cork, with the capacity for another 400 employees.
