Jobs boost announced in Kilcormac
There was a major boost for Kilcormac today as Dublin-based technology company Anitech Solutions announced a new partnership with Rhomu Ltd., an Offaly-based finance operations firm, to establish a new Account Executive team in Kilcormac.
The initiative will create five new jobs immediately, with plans to expand to 30 skilled positions over the next two to three years.
The announcement took place at the Kilcormac Community Centre, supported by Offaly County Council Cathaoirleach Cllr John Leahy, Deputy Tony McCormack, and members of the local community. The event also featured Offaly’s own Formula 2 driver, Alex Dunne, as a special guest, recognising his success as an outstanding young ambassador for the county and a proud partner of Anitech’s Tapybl platform.
Speaking at the event, Deputy Tony McCormack said: “This is a really positive day for Kilcormac and Offaly. It shows what can happen when local leadership and enterprise work hand in hand to bring opportunity back to our towns. Anitech and Rhomu are showing real faith in rural Offaly, and it’s exactly the kind of sustainable investment we need to see more of.”
Cllr. John Leahy added: “For too long, rural communities like ours have seen opportunities move elsewhere. Today proves that with the right support, we can attract innovative companies and create meaningful jobs here in Kilcormac. This partnership is a brilliant example of what’s possible when business and community work together.”
Andrew Nolan, CEO of Anitech Solutions, said the partnership marks a new chapter for both companies: “We’re excited to expand our team through this collaboration with Rhomu. Our Tapybl platform is all about connecting people and brands in new ways, and it’s fitting that we’re building that future from the heart of rural Ireland.”
Mike Barnes, CEO of Rhomu Ltd., highlighted the long-term vision for the area: “This partnership is about more than just jobs it’s about regeneration. We want to see Kilcormac grow into a thriving hub for digital and financial services. We’re proud to work with Anitech and to have the continued support of Cllr. John Leahy and Deputy Tony McCormack as we expand our operations here.”
The Kilcormac launch is part of a broader effort to attract high-quality digital and finance roles to the Midlands, creating sustainable employment and encouraging talent to live and work locally.
