Guidelines for applying online – Staff Posts

Hundreds of construction jobs are expected to be created with the building of three new libraries in the University of Limerick as well as Cork and Limerick Institutes of Technology. A digital media centre, workshop and multi-purpose hall have also been promised for the Dún Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology, Dublin under a multi-million development boost for third level.
The projects are finally going to tender almost four years after they were originally announced.
Building is expected to begin later this year and the facilities, which will benefit over 5,000 students, will be completed by the end of 2012.
They will be built under a Public Private Partnership (PPP) scheme which the Department of Education will put on the market next week. Under the model, a private company agrees to finance and build a facility, and then maintains and manages it for 25 years, providing services such as cleaning and security during that period. In return, the Government will pay the company a fixed sum each year for the duration of the contract.
Education Minister, Batt O’Keeffe, said the Government considers the projects “strategically important investments for the smart economy” and they “will create hundreds of jobs in construction at a challenging time for the sector”.
