Teleperformance Create Contact Centre jobs in County Down

It has been announced by Teleperformance that they are to create over 600 contact centre jobs at their contact centres in Newry and Bangor, County Down.

The announcement was made by Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster during a visit to Newry and commented that the jobs would be a "welcome boost to the local economy".

"By the time all positions are filled, Teleperformance will have almost 2,000 people based at its Newry and Bangor sites, making the firm one of this region's largest employers," she said.

"At a time when many companies are deferring investment plans, it is encouraging to see the confidence placed in Northern Ireland."

The expansion has been supported by Invest Northern Ireland which gave more than £3m towards the investment.

Teleperformance chairman and chief executive Jeff Smith said: "Their offer of support, combined with the availability of suitable property and our positive experiences in Northern Ireland over the past 11 years, resulted in our decision to invest further in the Newry site."
