PayPal has opened a new operations centre in Dundalk, Ireland, with around 60 people starting in the office this week. The company announced earlier this year that the new office would create around 1,000 jobs. The Dundalk branch will provide customer support for operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
“Our new employees will be joining PayPal at an exciting time. Our vision is to help people pay for things anytime, anywhere and on any type of electronic device,” said Louise Phelan, VP of global operations for PayPal in EMEA on the company website. “We’re reimagining money to work better for consumers and businesses at a time when the line between the online world and the high street is breaking down. Our new teammates in Dundalk and Dublin will help us create the future of money.”
