Integrity, an IT consultancy for the life sciences industry, has announced it is recruiting for a number of new roles at its base in Cashel, Co. Tipperary, which opened last October and will now become the firm's European headquarters.
The company is seeking to hire in areas such as IT project management, service management and quality & compliance as it establishes relations with global pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical giants based in Ireland.
"We’re looking to recruit at all levels and engage with some of the excellent universities you have in Ireland. We’d like to see where we can support them and leverage graduates from those universities," said Chris Reid, CEO of Integrity.
“We pride ourselves on having a very low staff turnover, and we hope that’s because we treat our staff well in terms of career development and reward. We also encourage mobility within the organisation that enables our staff to meet new challenges and develop a breadth of capabilities”
Commenting on the announcement, Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment Leo Varadkar said: "I’m so pleased Integrity has chosen Cashel as the location for its new International Operations Centre, which will also be the company’s European HQ, creating a number of new jobs.
"Our talented workforce and the links that exist between our universities and industry are both really important for what has developed into a thriving life sciences sector here. I wish the team the very best with their plans."
The project is supported by the government through IDA Ireland, whose executive director, Mary Buckley, said: "The decision by Integrity to establish its European headquarters in Cashel is terrific news and a welcome addition to the robust Life Sciences cluster in the Midwest.
"IDA Ireland remains committed to winning jobs and investment for every part of Ireland and we look forward to supporting Integrity with this expansion."
