Shopify Announce 100 New Jobs In Ireland

Leading cloud-based, multi-channel commerce platform, Shopify, has announced the creation of 100 new jobs in Ireland.

Known as "Gurus", Shopify's Irish support staff are all remote workers, meaning they can work wherever they want.

Welcoming the announcement, Tánaiste and Minister for  Enterprise and Innovation, Frances Fitzgerald, said: "I'm very impressed by Shopify's innovative business model whereby the staff are not based in a central office but can work from home and it is great news that they are creating 100 new jobs. This is a really exciting, innovative, company, which is paving the way for more flexible and family friendly forms of working. Their rapid growth in Ireland is a true vote of confidence in what Ireland has to offer cutting edge companies."

John Riordan, Director of Support, Ireland at Shopify, added: "We've seen the benefits of remote culture and how it can be utilised to rejuvenate the west of Ireland and counties like Galway."

Shopify is currently hiring and looking for people interested in supporting business development, commerce and entrepreneurship. To learn more, contact recruitment_ireland@shopify.com.
