Minister for Finance Michael McGrath formally opens engineering giant’s new office as it marks 50 years in Ireland

Engineering and construction giant Jacobs plans to hire 100 staff for its Irish office as it opens a new headquarters here.

“Jacobs decided to grow beyond the US for the first time in 1974, and we selected Dublin with the IDA’s support,” said the group’s chief executive Bob Pragada. “The business has grown from four or five key people to a team of 1,200 people in that time. Jacobs said the 100 new jobs in engineering, project management, construction management, commissioning and qualification will be created over the next two years.

Globally Jacobs employs more than 60,000 people and says it has around approximately $16 billion in annual revenue.
