The new roles will create opportunities for people at all stages of their career, including recent graduates and experienced engineering professionals, who will be helping to reinforce a skilled Northern Ireland-based workforce. The company also recently opened a new office in Cork with plans to further grow its reach.Â
Iain Joannides, the executive director of regional business at Invest NI, said that the company’s investment will “strengthen its capabilities in water consulting engineering and position it to capitalise on growing demand for water infrastructure consultancy in the Middle East”.
