Microsoft is to hire over 100 experienced professionals and graduates, and an additional 60 interns in Dublin.
The company is recruiting people for a range of positions including service, process and software engineers, data analytics experts, programme managers, finance experts, channel & technical account management, device demand planners, supply chain experts, operations, sales & marketing.
All of the positions are based in Microsoft Ireland’s EMEA operations centre, European development centre and sales business. Recruitment for these positions has already commenced.
As part of the 30th anniversary of Microsoft’s presence in Ireland, the company announced a new €134 million campus in Leopardstown, Dublin. Construction is underway on the project.
Cathriona Hallahan, managing director of Microsoft Ireland, said: “Microsoft in Ireland is a global hub for many parts of our operations and development teams. That means that there are great career opportunities for people – many of whom will have a European or global role while being based in Dublin.
“We have also announced plans for further expansion at our Dublin based Data Centre to support the continued growth in demand for cloud services. It’s great to be able to finish the year by highlighting our recruitment plans and we hope to welcome new members to our team very soon.
“The type of people we are looking to attract should be creative thinkers with a growth mind set, passionate about technology innovation, customer obsessed, and interested in working in a fast paced dynamic environment. The roles that we’re recruiting for are diverse and demonstrate the breadth of opportunities available when working with a technology leader. In particular, our engineering roles span Windows, Office, Dynamics and Azure cloud services.”
Microsoft employs 1,200 people in Ireland across four separate divisions: Microsoft EMEA Operations Centre (EOC), Microsoft European Development Centre (EDC), Microsoft Sales, Marketing & Services Group (SMSG) and the EMEA Data Centre.
