Details of the new roles were unveiled in a report outlining further plans to grow the workforce to more than 1,000 in the next five years.
Dublin-based IT company Nostra has today (7 November) announced the creation of 38 new jobs, to be filled across the coming 12 months. The news was revealed as part of a company report highlighting a strong financial year that saw a 27pc increase in year-on-year revenue.
Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Dublin 12, Nostra is a provider of IT and cybersecurity services to a range of sectors. The organisation’s expansion plans are largely driven by a focus on meeting the demands for global cybersecurity and a commitment to talent recruitment across Ireland.
Nostra is looking to add 12 professionals to the Galway security team, 20 people to its Dublin marketing, service, engineering and account management teams and an additional six experts across a variety of functions in Cork. Currently, Nostra employs 350 people primarily across Ireland and future plans involve increasing this figure to more than 1,000 employees, over five years.
“This year has demonstrated the hard work and commitment of everyone at Nostra,” said Kevin O’Loughlin, the CEO and co-founder of Nostra. “Our growth has been significant and our expansion plans are well underway. By focusing on cybersecurity and bringing in new talent nationwide, we are building a business that is not only growing rapidly but is also well-positioned to set industry standards in IT service delivery.”
To expand its current tech stack, Nostra has also been at the centre of a number of acquisitions and mergers, having recently acquired the printing division of PPC, which is a Xerox partner, amid a move which marked the company’s 10th acquisition since 2015. Other high-profile purchases include the acquisition of Spectrum AV, a Cork-based audio-visual services firm and managed services provider Compunet, which is also based in Cork.
