Irish firm Presidion to create 20 graduate jobs

SPSS Ireland has rebranded itself under the new name Presidion and will create 20 new graduate jobs in Ireland over the next three years.

The analytics software and services company was established in Dublin in the mid-Nineties and has since become IBM’s biggest partner for predictive analytics. It services more than 500 accounts and thousands of customers in Ireland.

The company will now aim to expand in the UK market and the graduate programme will hire 20 new staff to help achieve the aim.

Graduates with mathematics backgrounds will be offered analytic consulant roles while those with market and business degrees will be given analytic account management roles.

“Presidion exemplifies the type of companies that will be central to Ireland’s economic recovery. It is a company that is at the forefront of innovation, creating the software services of tomorrow, opening new markets, and securing economic growth and jobs,” said John Perry, TD, minister of State for Small Business.

“It is innovation that will drive the productivity growth that will push our economy to new levels and create new jobs for our people. I believe that companies like Presidion are essential for fostering the climate of innovation in Ireland and translating Irish entrepreneurial ambition into market-focused reality.”
