The news was unveiled at the official opening of Source Civil’s new offices in Donegal town.
Civil engineering company Source Civil has today (11 October) announced plans to grow its workforce to more than 270 employees, with the creation of 50 jobs in the next 12 months. The news was revealed at the official opening of the company’s new headquarters in Donegal town, which is part of a €10m investment between now and 2029.
Founded in 2006 by Enda Healy and Dearbhail Mulhern, Source Civil delivers multidiscipline and specialised engineering contracts across Ireland, the UK and Europe. The new premises will provide services for customers based in Germany, the Netherlands, France and the UK, with the company looking to hire quality engineers, contract managers, site engineers, setting out engineers, planners, experienced forepeople and pipe-layers.
Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Digital and Company Regulation Dara Calleary, TD, opened the 10,000 square foot facility. “ Today’s expansion announcement is a great boost for Donegal as well as the wider north-west region and paves the way for this innovative company to significantly scale its business globally.
“The Government, through Enterprise Ireland, looks forward to continued engagement with Source Civil to support the growth of the business into the future.”
Healy, who is MD of Source Civil, revealed plans to further establish the company, making the transition from an SME to a widely recognised, international brand. “Building on our strong traditions and hard-earned reputation, we are scaling up our business to secure a more sustainable future for all our staff,” he said.
“Our business priority is to keep people safe and to continue to invest their time and resources in performance improvement making sure we have the right people with the right skills doing the right job. We are passionate about what we do and we always strive for excellence.”
Earlier this autumn, Enterprise Ireland released a report showing that it invested €24m in a diverse range of Irish start-ups last year.
