Additional Information

Online food delivery company Just Eat is opening a new Headquarters in Dublin in February and is creating 160 new jobs. The positions will be mostly based at the new Dublin offices and will be in customer service, sales, office management and facilities. The company also plans to recruit couriers in several locations across the country.

The job creation announcement is related to a huge increase in sales and profits over the previous 20 months, during the Covid restrictions. The reopening of the hospitality sector has not affected the company’s growth, as many restaurants are keeping delivery services as a core part of their business.
