Oracle is to establish a new Consulting Centre of Excellence at Dublin's East Point Business Park, which will create up to 50 new jobs. Oracle already employs about 1,000 people here.
The new centre will allow the company's Dublin based consultants to be deployed through the entire EMEA region to meet Oracle's growing business demands.
'The main benefit is that we can increase the number of consulting staff working on Irish projects at very short notice, making us more reactive and flexible for our customers,' commented Nicky Sheridan, Vice President and Country Manager, Oracle Ireland.
'It is a strategic move by Oracle and a major endorsement for Ireland that the division is to be located here,' he added.
Oracle today also announced the creation of a Northern Ireland office. The proposed Belfast office will for the first time enable the company to service the growing Northern Ireland market from a local base. The new office will open in early 2005.
