Ireland’s largest home grown Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) provider is creating 350 new jobs in Sligo, it was announced today.

Abtran already employs over 2,000 people in Cork, Dublin, Kildare and Southern India. The company will base its new regional operations centre in a high-tech facility at Finisklin Business Park in Sligo which will be up and running in the third quarter of 2018.
 
The new development forms part of a regional expansion strategy by Abtran in Ireland where the North West region has been selected for the location of a major new operations hub. 

The announcement was made today by Minister for Business, Enterprise and Innovation, Heather Humphreys T.D., together with Pat Ryan, CEO of Abtran and Julie Sinnamon, CEO of Enterprise Ireland. The development is supported by the Government through Enterprise Ireland.

Recruitment for the new roles in Sligo has started. For more information on the variety of new roles that will be available or to submit a CV, applicants are invited to email Abtran’s Talent Acquisition Team at sligocareers@abtran.com. Details on Abtran’s Sligo careers Fair and a new jobs page will be announced over the coming weeks.
 
Speaking today, Minister for Business, Enterprise and Innovation, Heather Humphreys said, "The fact that they have chosen to invest in the North West to serve their business markets both at home and abroad is a testament to the confidence they have in the region and its talented workforce. Ireland will continue to be an acknowledged leader in this sector driven by initiatives like this by Abtran."

CEO of Enterprise Ireland, Julie Sinnamon added, "Abtran is a great example of how an Irish business, with a blueprint for services innovation, can successfully accelerate and rapidly scale its business in international markets.
