The expanding Irish betting company Paddy Power is to create 500 new jobs in Dublin over the next three years as part of a global expansion. The book-maker says that by the end of 2013 it will have created an additional 1,440 jobs globally. Paddy Power claims it will employ over 2,000 staff in Ireland when its expansion here is complete. The company also plans to create 810 jobs in the UK, and 130 jobs in Australia as its international business expands. All of the new jobs will be in place by the end of 2013, it says.
Many of the new posts in Ireland will be located at its online international business centre in Dublin, and the new positions are for technicians, quantitative researchers and in marketing and risk management. The remainder of the jobs will be in various Paddy Power shops.
