HIBERNIAN
If newspaper reports are correct Hibernian could be moving 250 back office jobs to India. Trade Union Unite hope to grill management at a meeting this Friday.
This outsourcing initiative by Hibernian could be as a result of parent company Aviva announcing 525m in cost cuts worldwide.
It seems that both Hibernian and the Unions are denying this.
Hibernian is Ireland’s largest general insurer and employs 2200 staff in Ireland (1500 of which are represented by Unite). If the jobs do go this would represent a 10% cut in workforce.
Let’s hope that this is just speculation but the signs don’t look good. Outsourcing to low cost economies seem is a well beaten path these days in Ireland.
DOMINO’S
There is some positive jobs news in that Domino’s Pizza has announce that it will be opening 7 new stores in Ireland with the creation of 225 jobs. They currently have 34 stores in Ireland

I wrote yesterday about the great news released that PAYE workers had reclaimed 1.5bn in tax over the last 4 years BUT guess what!! Abuse and health scandals have just wiped this out. When you sit the cost of the Tribunals on top of this we are actually worse off.
So any good jobs news stories today?
FINANCIAL SERVICES – Cork was once known for its strong Pharmaceutical Sector (and GAA strikes) BUT now it seems that it is building its own little IFSC. Citco has announced that it is creating 150 new jobs. The company already employs 145 in Cork. The majority of the new roles will require 3rd level business/accountancy. Ireland is now has over 40 companies employing over 9000 staff in the funds administration sector.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) - More than half of senior technology executives are confident about the sector in 2008. Many see increases in employment in the sector. Over half believe that it is getting difficult to recruit IT staff.

Citco Fund Services (world’s largest hedge funds administrator) is planning to expand its operations in Dublin. Citco currently employ 600 staff in Ireland and they are looking for new office space which could mean another 100 staff.
With the turmoil in the jobs market many jobseekers are seeking a safe haven to weather this storm. Jobseekers want a sector that will provide stability away from the continual threat of redundancy. Construction is suffering, retail is stuttering, manufacturing on deaths door BUT is financial services the shining knight.
It’s hard to know if Financial Services is a safe bet. The stock market is in turmoil and the banking and financial sector has strong ties to the construction and housing. For example Start Mortgages announced on Friday that it is cutting its workforce by 10% which indicates that the demand for loans is slowing fast. This has a direct knock on effect for banks but also financial services providers such as insurance.
I think Financial Services will remain a pillar of the economy. Developments and announcements such as Citco Fund Services are encouraging and would indicate strength within this sector despite the uncertainty globally.

General Manager required for manufacturing facility in Shannon.
I posted earlier in the week about the news that Zimmer were opening a new manufacturing facility in Shannon. I noticed this morning in the Irish Times (p15) that they are recruiting for a General Manager (This is great news for all you impatient souls like me).
For those interested in joining Zimmer do not miss the small print at the bottom of the advert (I nearly did) as Zimmer are accepting CV’s for other leadership positions across the Business functions – Manufacturing Manager, Quality Manager, Engineering Manager, HR Manager and Finance Manager.Other professional jobs will be posted on website from Spring 2008.
Like most start-ups there is quite a bit of competition so ensure that your CV makes an impact and gets you called for interview. You will find some interesting CV information that could help on the following site CV4jobs.
For those of you who do not buy the Times the website is careers.zimmer.com.

It was a Super Tuesday in the US an in Ireland today. US Medical Device manufacturer Zimmer announced an investment of 50m Euro in Shannon creating 250 jobs. This is great news for the region and the withering manufacturing sector.
Zimmer lends its name to the well know product the Zimmer Frame which is defined as a tool for people who need additional support to maintain balance or stability. Its a bit weird that Zimmer is now a tool for a country that needs additional support to maintain balance and stability. Zimmer offers a reversal to the trend on manufacturing relocation and redundancy.
I suppose we have to give credit to the IDA, government and all those involved. They get it in the neck when things go bad (which is regular at the moment) so it is only right to acknowledge this success.
This news signals a busy time for jobseekers in the region. Get busy working on your CV and interview preparation.
