Website: https://www.edwards.com/careers/jobs
Edwards Lifesciences is currently looking at three sites in Limerick and Shannon to locate new operation.
Structural heart disease monitoring company Edwards Lifesciences is to create 600 new jobs in Ireland’s mid-west as part of a major €80m investment.
The company will establish a new plant to manufacture delivery components for its transcatheter heart valve therapies.
Edwards is planning to hire approximately 60 people this year in various functions, such as production staff, engineering and professional management, to work at its initial site located in the Shannon Free Zone.
The company plans to complete a new, purpose-built manufacturing facility in the mid-west of Ireland in 2020. Once the facility is fully operational, Edwards expects that it will employ approximately 600 people.
