TerraQuest To Create Over 20 New Jobs In Belfast
TerraQuest is to create over 20 new jobs in Belfast.
The firm is the UK's largest specialist provider of land referencing services, which deal with the research of ownership, occupation and rights over land subject to development.
Economy Minister Simon Hamilton said: "The 22 new jobs will offer opportunities to both graduates and experienced professionals and will be recruited over the next three years. Positions will range from Project Managers to Land Technicians and will generate annual salaries of over £560,000 for the local economy. I am pleased Invest Northern Ireland helped to secure this investment and is supporting the creation of these jobs with an £88,000 employment grant."
Geoff Keal, TerraQuest's Managing Director, said: "We foresee many opportunities over the next few years for our land referencing services as major transport infrastructure projects get underway across the UK. To be ready to take advantage of these opportunities we need to invest in new staff resources.
"We have chosen to create a centre of excellence in Belfast because we know from experience that we can recruit high quality staff there who will ensure excellent service delivery. Belfast is also a cost-effective business environment and this will help us achieve our profitability targets."
