Yelp to Create 100 New Jobs in Dublin

Yelp, which specialises in business reviews, will today announce the creation of over 100 new jobs in the capital.

The decision to base its European headquarters in Dublin was described as “landmark” by the company, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Expanding Yelp’s international operations with the opening of our new office in Dublin is a landmark moment in the company’s history. This new office will be home to our European operations and will be the engine behind our European revenue generation efforts,”

Jeremy Stoppelman, Co-founder and CEO at Yelp

The news will come as a boost to Taoiseach Enda Kenny, who has been forced to address a range of domestic issues during his three-day visit to the west coast of America.

Recruitment for the positions – which range from sales and finance to engineering – will begin immediately.

The Taoiseach said that attracting new companies to Ireland is a crucial part of the Government’s recovery plan.

“My visit here this week is all about cementing and reinforcing existing relationships as well as building new connections with a view to securing investment for Ireland
