We have set up a Centre of Excellence to support this international growth in demand.

He continued: “This investment is a high-value play to help some of the fastest growing companies in the world find the best talent in the world from here in Ireland, something we are immensely proud of.”

Sigmar CEO Adie Mc Gennis, said: “Everyone at Sigmar is proud and excited to share our expansion plans. We have experienced very strong growth and this confirms our confidence in the recruitment sector, the Irish economy and most importantly in all of our people to continue Sigmar’s success.”
