Galway-based analytics company Joulica is to create 40 jobs in Galway in the next three years as it seeks to increase the pace of growth at the company.
The new roles will be created across product development, sales and marketing and customer success, and will bring the total number of people employed by the company to 70.
The expansion is being supported by a funding round led by Elkstone Partners and backed by Enterprise Ireland.
Chief executive Tony McCormack said the company was aiming to become the leading real-time analytics solution provider.

The news was welcomed by Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Simon Coveney. “The Galway-based company, who plan to employ 40 additional people locally, has a well-earned reputation for service and delivery for their customers,” he said. “I also want to commend the team on its recent successful funding round, which will support the company’s significant growth plans and global ambition.”
