Sogeti to expand Irish workforce

Trade

27 March 2012

IT consultancy Sogeti, a Capgemini company, is to create 65 new jobs through the expansion of its Dublin and Galway offices over the next three years. The positions created will be a mix of high skilled and graduate roles in the IT sector, with recruitment already in progress.

Today’s expansion will see the company’s Irish workforce increase to over 150 people and is a result of the company’s strong growth and healthy pipeline of new business. Sogeti’s services are a key part of the IT infrastructure of Irish-based multinationals.

Making the announcement from Beijing, Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation Richard Bruton said: "The Action Plan for Jobs targets IT and outsourcing as key sectors where Ireland has the potential for major employment growth. The global ICT sector is expected to grow by 5% per annum in the coming years, and with implementation of the right Government policies Ireland is extremely well positioned to take advantage of that growth."

Speaking at the announcement, Jean-Francois Courtines, chief sales officer and head of alliances, Sogeti Group, said: "We have experienced significant growth across Sogeti’s service lines in recent years, and our future prospects are excellent. Sogeti Ireland is an integral part in Capgemini’s global operations and its expansion is in no small part due to the track record of the Sogeti team in Ireland and the availability of a skilled workforce, matching the type of talented, motivated candidates that we seek. This further growth is being fueled by a strong demand around our current offerings of software quality, software development services, and ERP services."
