Facebook is creating 200 full time jobs in Dublin.
The posts will be filled by the end of the year, taking the total number of employees at Facebook’s International Headquarters to 1,500.
The new jobs created will be across a range of business functions, including sales, engineering and online operations.
Facebook recently doubled the size of its premises in Silicon Docks to over 250,000 square feet which brings the potential to hire up to 2,000 people in total.
Earlier this year the company’s announced that Clonee, County Meath will be the site for Facebook’s newest data centre – the second in Europe and first in Ireland.
Gareth Lambe, Head of Facebook Ireland, said:
“Our commitment to hire 200 talented people before the end of 2016 demonstrates our continued investment in Ireland and reaffirms Dublin as our International Headquarters. We’ve had an incredibly exciting start to the year with the Clonee Data Centre announcement, the opening of our first Partner Centre outside of Menlo Park and today’s news.”
“We look forward to welcoming new Facebookers to the company to help them to build meaningful, lasting careers, as well as business clients to the Partner Centre to give them a look first hand at how Facebook operates, both now and in the future.”
