Sinn Féin MLA Conor Murphy has welcomed news that New York tech company DailyPay will create 293 new jobs in Belfast.
The party’s economy spokesperson said:
“It’s fantastic news that US tech company DailyPay will create almost 300 new jobs in Belfast by 2025.
“This is a major investment of £24 million which will significantly boost our local economy by over £12 million every year.
“DailyPay’s decision to expand their workforce of 100 people here is yet another clear sign of a major US company’s confidence in the talent of our workers, but also the growing strength of the north as a centre of excellence for many different areas of technology, and a key location for more economic development.
“Creating jobs and strengthening our economy is a top priority for Sinn Féin. We need an Executive formed now and an economy minister in place to provide leadership and ensure we seize the economic opportunities available to us.”
