BDO announced 50 new roles as Minister for Finance & Public Expenditure and Reform Paschal Donohoe officially opened its new offices

The announcement signals another period of growth for Limerick’s chartered accountants, with staffing levels already having reached 105 and a client base grown to over 1,000 following expansion over recent years.

The new posts will be across Audit, Taxation and Advisory services and will come on stream over the next three years.

Minister Donohoe said that BDO’s growth over recent years and the planned growth ahead is indicative of the positive mood in Limerick.  “BDO is an international brand that has grown very significantly here in Limerick. In doing so, BDO has helped the companies it provides services to grow and now is embarking on further expansion itself.

This is typical of what we are seeing in Limerick; a city with ambition and one that is forward thinking and one that is targeted for future growth under the Government’s plan for regional development. It’s also a city with a highly educated workforce, and one that is very resourceful. I congratulate BDO on the move, which I’m sure will have a positive impact on all staff and commend it for its commitment to growing employee numbers again.
