Two companies to create over 100 new jobs

Two companies are announcing plans to create more than 100 jobs in Dublin and Louth today.

LANDesk is establishing an international financial services centre in Dublin, bringing 15 high quality jobs, for which most candidates will need to have undergraduate or masters degrees.

Separately an unidentified firm described as a 'major technology company' is expected to reveal the remainder of the jobs later this morning as it announces the establishment of its European headquarters in Dundalk, with recruitment to begin immediately for a variety of technological support positions.

Full details are expected to be revealed after 11am.
