Canadian software firm to double headcount at Belfast office after just 18 months in operation

A Canadian software company has said it will double headcount at its Belfast office after setting up a base in the city in 2021.

Optiva Inc, which provides revenue management software and is listed on the Toronto stock market, intends to grow its employee number to 40 from 21 currently, with roles available in software engineering and technology development. The company said they offer competitive salaries and will contribute over £2.4 million a year in wages to the Northern Ireland economy.

The company’s site lead Richard McLaughlin said he is “delighted” with the progress the Belfast team has made since setting up 18 months ago. He also said Northern Ireland fought off stiff competition from across Europe for the company’s investment.
