M&S Boost For Swords
Marks & Spencer is to create 450 jobs when it opens its largest store in the Irish Republic - in north County Dublin.
The move is part of a €500 million extension to the north Dublin shopping centre, which is expected to be completed in five years time, and unfortunately for prospective workers, recruitment will not start until four months before the outlet opens in 2014.
The retailer has agreed to become one of the anchor tenants in a new development at the Pavilions shopping centre in Swords, Co Dublin after a negotiation process that has lasted about a year.
Marks & Spencer's Ireland boss, Jonathan Smith said: "It's an indicator of a long-term strategy, despite the economic difficulties at the moment," he said.
"M&S is a popular brand. Our food business is very different from other supermarkets.
"It wil bring something different and exciting to the centre," he said.
