Multi-channel customer engagement and marketing provider Xtremepush will fill 50 roles in Dublin this year and will add another 120 in the next three years, more than doubling its workforce as it rolls out its enterprise customer intelligence platform worldwide.
Xtremepush secured $33m in finance to assist its global ambitions in a funding round led by Grafton Capital after experiencing pandemic-induced customer growth of 64%. The company now has 350 enterprise customers and has forecast growth of 60% in 2022.
The announcement was made as Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Digital and Company Regulation Robert Troy opened the company's new offices on Clarendon Street in Dublin 2.
Xtremepush CEO Tommy Kearns said the company's platform had fuelled dramatic business growth in the seven years since its launch.
"We are already becoming a global category leader, working with leading enterprise clients from offices in Ireland, the United Kingdom, North America and Eastern Europe. Our new Dublin flagship headquarters, in this prime location, is a marker of further growth acceleration," he said.
