US e-commerce firm Digital River is to create 350 jobs over five years at the Shannon Free Zone. (Westpark Business Park Shannon)
The company has set up a European headquarters to support the business of its subsidiary Digital River Ireland.
The US company, which is based in Minneapolis, builds and manages online businesses for more than 40,000 software publishers, manufacturers, distributors and online retailers.
The jobs will be for computer software graduates and engineers. The Minister for Enterprise and Employment Micheál Martin made the announcement in Shannon this morning. Shannon Development is supporting the project.
The company builds and manages online business for more than 40,000 software publishers, distributors and online retailers, and recently secured the giant Microsoft company as a customer.
Minister Martin said more and more companies were choosing to locate in the regions outside Dublin, because it is easier for them to hold onto their staff.
