Balloo Hire are creating 20 new jobs as part of a £10m investment across the firm’s five sites in Northern Ireland.
Roles on offer at the plant, tool and equipment hire specialists, include administration, clerical, management, engineering, mechanics, finance and sales posts.
The company will also see an increase in the range of new machinery available for hire including dumpers, generators and site accommodation to VIP toilets for events and garden equipment.
The family-owned and run company has grown over the last three decades since its inception.
Growth in the Northern Ireland construction sector as well as a rise in demand for on-site events equipment has seen customer demand increase significantly in the plant, tool and equipment market.
General Manager Mark Grundy says they have experienced significant growth in the construction industry which is still in recovery from the recession.
“This has resulted in the company winning new contracts across a broad range of sectors. Northern Ireland has a burgeoning events and entertainment sector which has also increased the demand for our products and services. We predict these sectors combined will experience growth over the next 3-5 years,” he says.
As a result, he says, they are investing in key staff and machinery to meet the demands of customers and stay abreast of the competition.
Balloo Hire has sites in Belfast, Bangor, Ballyclare, Lisburn and Glenavy.
