Multi-disciplinary consultancy and engineering firm Egis is creating 100 new jobs, primarily in engineering, to be filled over the next year. The announcement was made as Tánaiste Simon Harris opened the company’s revamped Dublin headquarters.
About Egis
Egis, which has operated in Ireland since 1994, has grown its Irish workforce to over 630 people. This expansion follows increased investment in national infrastructure projects and Egis’s 2023 acquisition of Dublin-based engineering firm JB Barry & Partners.
The announcement follows a number of recent contract awards secured by Egis, including a new contract by Transport Infrastructure Ireland to operate and maintain the Dublin Port Tunnel, the Jack Lynch Tunnel and monitor 1,200km of motorway. It is also acting as engineer on the Adare Bypass for the Sisk Sorenson joint venture.
Egis new offices
Speaking during his visit to Egis, Tánaiste Simon Harris said: “I’m delighted to officially open Egis’ newly refurbished engineering headquarters. I would like to congratulate the company on its past achievements and to wish it further success in the future. Egis has already successfully partnered with the government and with a number of state agencies on the delivery and operation of major infrastructure projects, so I greatly welcome the company’s plans to continue expanding and to create 100 new jobs over the next year.
Steve Preece, Chief Executive of Egis in Ireland, said: “I would like to thank the Tánaiste for officially opening our newly refurbished engineering headquarters. This event marks the final step in the successful integration of JB Barry & Partners into Egis, and I would like to acknowledge the positive impact our acquisition of the company has had and the strong position it has put us in. I am also pleased to announce our plans to recruit 100 more staff in the next year.”
