Softcat, a provider of IT infrastructure products and services, today announces that it has created 18 new jobs  during a successful first year since opening its Irish headquarters in Dun Laoghaire. 

The company will continue to invest in its Irish growth and expects to double its workforce over the next two years. Since opening its first non-UK office in Dun Laoghaire in August 2018, it has doubled its Irish customer base - with customers from both the public and private sectors.

Softcat say the new hires will enable Softcat to grow and enhance its service offering, with a focus on areas it has seen significant demand for by Irish businesses - including hybrid cloud, digital workspace, IT intelligence and cyber security offerings. The company is recruiting for technical roles, especially in the areas of cloud and IT security, as well as sales positions.

Commenting on the expansion, Ireland Country Manager at Softcat, Charles Harman said, "Ireland is a very attractive location for investment for Softcat. As well as the business prospects here, Ireland represents a great recruitment opportunity, with a highly skilled workforce and a vibrant tech scene. We want to embed ourselves in Ireland by giving back to the community and creating high-value employment opportunities. This is an exciting time for Softcat, in Ireland especially, and we look forward to welcoming new team members on our growth journey."
