Dublin-based Agile Networks unveils plan to double workforce

Dublin-based IT services company Agile Networks has announced it is to double its workforce over the next 18 months, which will see the creation of 16 new jobs.

The company, which was successfully bought out by its management three years ago, has seen its client base from just seven customers in 2011 to 53 this year.

Providing IT integration services for organisations such as HEAnet, Analog Devices and the ESB, the company is expected to have a turnover of €7 million this year.

To cope with the expansion, the company is moving to bigger offices in Blanchardstown.

The company said recruitment is underway for the new positions, 11 of the new jobs in engineering and technical positions and five jobs across sales and administration.
