The Deluxe Group in Portadown has created over 30 new jobs in a £1.7million investment to support its expansion in its chosen market sectors including luxury property, cruise line and visitor attractions.
Richard Hill, Business Development Director at Deluxe said: "We are really benefiting from the growth of the world’s ‘Experience Economy’. Spend is increasing on memorable experiences and our interiors have a common theme in that they tell a compelling story, whether it’s a luxury five-star hotel in a building with a rich heritage or a visitor attraction created from a successful film or TV show.
"It's great to see a Northern Ireland company achieving such global recognition and it’s not surprising that in executing prestigious projects like these, the company needed to hire new staff to keep up with the demand for its services."

As soon as we got the green light from Invest NI, we recruited 30 new staff quickly in Project Management, Quantity Surveying, Design and Skilled Craftsmanship. Our new staff are already helping us to take our art and theme business to the next level and will enable us to offer the most extensive range of experience led design across Europe.
"As we continue to expand our international operations, it is an exciting time to be part of the Deluxe Team where we make unforgettable experiences come to life.
