Three Ireland is to create 175 jobs at its Limerick customer support centre over the next four years, bringing the total number employed there to 570.
The new staff will support Three UK business customers, and will include full time and part time positions across a range of job titles and experience levels, ranging from customer care and team leaders to operations and management.
“This expansion of operations in our award-winning Limerick customer experience centre demonstrates the strength of Three’s customer service in Ireland and we are very excited to build on the high standard of talent we have. As the largest mobile telecommunications provider in Ireland by market share, with the fastest overall network, our Customer Care was awarded Contact Centre of the year in 2021 and we’re extremely happy to bring this exceptional level of service to our Three UK Business customers as well,” said Robert Finnegan, chief executive of Three Ireland and Three UK.
“This also underlines our commitment to Limerick as an employment hub into the long-term. Three Ireland has been investing and growing in Limerick for over 20 years, and today, we are reaffirming and increasing that commitment with the creation of these roles.”
