Minister for Enterprise, Jobs and Innovation Sean Sherlock is to announce another 50 new jobs at a business outsourcing company in Cork today.

The 1,000 jobs created in Cork in the past month show how the city “has become a much more competitive location” than Dublin, according to Agriculture Minister Simon Coveney.

Cork savoured another high-end jobs boost yesterday — bringing to over 700 the number of new jobs announced for the city in a week.
