New LinkedIn Jobs in Dublin, Ireland
IDA Ireland today welcomed the announcement by LinkedIn, the world’s largest professional network with more than 60 million members globally, that it is opening its new international headquarters in Dublin, Ireland.
LinkedIn plans to hire for several positions in its new Dublin office including positions in marketing, sales, finance and customer service. Details of current openings can be found on the LinkedIn Website.
Welcoming the announcement IDA Ireland CEO, Barry O’Leary, said: “Ireland has always been attractive to innovative global leaders and I’m delighted that a leading business social networking site, such as LinkedIn, has chosen Ireland as its international headquarters. This is an endorsement that Ireland can satisfy the needs of highly innovative and technologically advanced companies as they make critical investments. It demonstrates the advantages Ireland continues to offer global multinational companies and fits neatly with the type of service innovation investment identified by IDA in its recently published strategy Horizon 2020”.
LinkedIn’s offices in Mountain View, California will continue to serve as corporate headquarters with Dublin as the centre for international growth.
Kevin Eyres, managing director of LinkedIn Europe commented, “We now have more than 14 million members in Europe and 60 million worldwide. As our membership continues to grow quickly, this is the right time for us to establish an international headquarters. Being based in Dublin gives us access to a highly skilled workforce and enables us to coordinate our business growth across Europe and beyond to deliver the best possible service to our members.”
