Around 100 of these new roles will be in The Dock, the company’s new research and development hub.

ACCENTURE HAS ANNOUNCED the creation of 300 new jobs as part of plans to “grow and deepen its presence” in Ireland.

The new jobs will be in the field of design and technology, while 100 of these will be located at The Dock, the company’s new research and innovation hub which officially opens today.

New employees will work across a range of areas including artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and in industries ranging from financial services to consumer goods.
