Jobs Boost For Derry

Stream customer care centre in Londonderry is set to create an additional 450 new jobs for the city.

The jobs come after a deal was struck between BT and the Post Office to provide broadband services to customers.

Stream is currently the second largest employer in the city, and the deal is worth an approximate £450 million over a four-year period.

The company has already commenced its recruitment for positions in customer service, technical support and sales in the city's Ulster Science and Technology Park and its new premises on Spencer Road.
