Eircom has announced that it is to invest more in its operations in Northern Ireland.
The telecommunications company is to finish work on its core network in the region later this year, and is to spend €5m initially to boost its presence there.
The firm is to establish a new operations centre in Belfast, which will lead to the creation of 15 jobs for network engineers, project managers and qualified service professionals.
Eircom is planning to make further investments in Northern Ireland, which it sees as an increasingly attractive market.
