Cork-based Waterman Tecsar Engineering Alliance is to create 100 jobs over the next three years as the team announced a major expansion of its Irish operations.
The positions will be in a range of engineering fields including process piping, mechanical, electrical, instrumentation and civil structural engineering.
Waterman Tecsar Engineering Alliance was set up after two engineering companies, one based in Canada and another in Ireland, formed a plan to expand into Europe, providing industrial engineering services.
Tecsar Engineering has been operating in Canada for over 45 years and already employs more than 100 people.
Waterman Consulting Engineers was established in 1996 with an office on Union Quay in Cork City and when Conor MacSweeney of Tecsar Engineering approached Eric Waterman of Waterman Consulting, the two businesses officially aligned at the end of 2023.
Waterman Tecsar Engineering's clients include BASF, DuPont, Dow, Cork Plastics, Shell, Ineos Styrolution and NOVA Chemicals.
Conor MacSweeney, the Business Lead at Waterman Tecsar Engineering, said he was looking forward to expanding services both in Canada, the US, and Ireland but also in Europe.
"The alliance formally cements a good working relationship that has developed over the past number of years, whereby each company has provided services to the other. The Irish industrial market needs additional quality engineering options, and we are prepared to service it," he added.
