Tax experts double staff

TAX and advisory firm Mazars has opened its new Galway office and is to double its workforce by creating 30 jobs over a three-year period.

While 20 of the new roles will service its recently created outsourced accounting business, there will be an additional 10 roles in audit, tax and advisory in the new office.

The new centre will provide services to companies and builds on the firm’s existing outsourced business unit which is based in Dublin.

Enterprise Minister Heather Humphreys said: “Mazars is one of the top accounting firms in the world and I am pleased to see them increase their presence in the West.”
