“As well as providing valuable employment opportunities in the Newry, Armagh and South Down areas, this investment will contribute nearly £450,000 in additional salaries to the NI economy once all the roles are in place,” Derek adds.
Invest NI has offered £75,000 of support toward the new roles, three of which are already in place.
The company was founded by Maurice Healy, a leading entrepreneur in the Irish tech sector for over 25 years.
Glantus will initially be based at a co-working space in Newry, with employees also working from home during current COVID-19 restrictions.
Maurice Healy, CEO, Glantus says, “Many businesses are looking for solutions to help them become more data-driven.
“We see real potential to grow our business.”
“The Coronavirus pandemic is now forcing even more businesses to digitise and automate processes and we see real potential to grow our business as a result.
“Managing a large number of suppliers and processing high volumes of invoices can be a challenge, particularly for businesses with multiple divisions and finance systems.
“The solutions we offer help address these challenges,” he continues.
“We use our unique platform to connect any data source – including ERP, CRM, mobile apps, and email – to create a consolidated view of the data that drives a company’s finance operation.
“The team in Newry will play an important role in ensuring we identify, win and look after our customers,” Maurice adds.
Glantus plans to engage with the Southern Regional College and both NI universities on graduate employment opportunities.
