Pramerica Systems Ireland is to expand its operation in Donegal creating 330 new jobs over the next three years, with potential for further growth in the longer term, it has been announced. There will be a host of vacancies in the areas of project management, business analysis, technical support, data science and software testing among others.  The company will build a new, state-of-the-art, eco-friendly office campus near its current location in Letterkenny, Co Donegal, to accommodate the expansion. The new site is about a kilometre from Pramerica’s existing facility in Windy Hall, within the same business park. The first of two construction phases will begin during the fourth quarter of this year and will be completed by summer 2017. Occupancy of the 135,000-sq-ft facility, which could eventually accommodate up to 1,800 staff members, is tentatively scheduled to open next summer. The new campus will incorporate green technologies for electricity generation and rain water harvesting to reduce its overall impact on the environment. The construction project will be managed by Pramerica and delivered by Extraspace Solutions in a modular fashion to shorten construction time, improve building performance and reduce construction costs. Pramerica is a professional shared services and technology subsidiary of US-based Prudential Financial, Inc. (PFI). “We currently employ more than 1,200 people who are dispersed in four buildings. The new facility will bring them together in a single location,” said Caroline Faulkner, senior managing director and chief information officer at Pramerica Systems Ireland. “In addition, it will give us the space we need to bring on approximately 330 new staff members over the next three years. The new job opportunities will include senior IT managers, project managers, business analysts, data scientists, actuaries, accountants and a wide range of technology support and professional services roles."

Pramerica provides high quality careers across more than 50 functions including engineering, project management, business analysis, technical support, actuarial and financial services, digital media, data science, actuarial projects, software testing and development and quality assurance testing.
