Project management consultancy firm TLM Mission Critical has opened a new European headquarters in Dundalk, creating 12 jobs.

TLM is a New York-based project management firm comprised of engineering, architectural, construction and technology professionals.

TLM was introduced to Ireland through ConnectIreland, the organisation responsible for delivering the Government’s Succeed in Ireland initiative.

The company has opened its European headquarters in Dundalk town. The main function of the Louth office is to provide project management consultancy on data centre projects throughout Europe.

The objective of the new office will be to better serve existing European clients as well as several US-based clients looking to locate in Europe and potentially Ireland.

Dundalk was chosen as the prime location for TLM’s expansion plans because of the availability of key management and personnel, as well as access to talent within close proximity to Dundalk.

Michael Carron, principal, TLM, said: “TLM is very excited to add to the growing list of companies based in Ireland. We are also looking forward to building the newest most technically advanced data centres in Ireland. It is no secret that Ireland has become the data capital of Europe. Ireland has all of the key elements needed for ultimate data centre – cool weather, connectivity, and a qualified workforce.”

Mary Glynn, vice president of Business Development, TLM, added: “Brexit has cause for concern to many UK-based companies, Ireland will see an influx of companies looking to set up in Dublin and service Europe. TLM is ready to assist clients and manage their relocation. Although we specialise in data centres, that is not all that we do, we can oversee any construction project from beginning to end.”
