Engineering company Amey has opened a new office in Dublin, marking what it called a “significant milestone” in its continued investment and growth in Ireland.
The opening took place at The Freight Building in Dublin’s Docklands, and was inaugurated by Jack Chambers, Minister for Public Expenditure, alongside senior government representatives and Amey executives.
Amey added that the location provided a “modern, flexible workspace” that would foster collaboration and innovation. It features contemporary meeting and event spaces that will support the company’s plans to grow to 200 employees within three years.
Andy Milner, Amey CEO, said: “The opening of our new Dublin office is an important milestone as we strengthen our presence in Ireland and demonstrate our long-term commitment to the Irish market. This investment shows our intention to collaborate closely with partners at both the national and local levels to deliver resilient and adaptable infrastructure that supports connectivity, economic development, and sustainable growth.
“It also provides us with an exciting platform for future expansion, enabling us to deepen relationships with clients, grow our teams locally, and bring our international expertise to projects that deliver long-term value for communities across Ireland.”
Amey said its growth in Ireland was supported by strong partnerships with transport authorities such as Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) and Iarnród Éireann through various infrastructure frameworks. These include projects to improve strategic road and rail networks, which the company added would enhance safety, strengthen resilience, and improve connectivity for communities across Ireland.
Jack Chambers, Minister for Public Expenditure, Infrastructure, Public Services, Reform and Digitalisation, said: “By growing its presence here, Amey is aligned to Government commitments for the years ahead– contributing not only to our national infrastructure priorities, but also to the wider economy, fostering innovation and sustainable development. This will support our ambitions for Ireland to remain competitive on the global stage.”
Reflecting Amey’s wider commitment to sustainability, the new Dublin office incorporates measures to minimise environmental impact and improve efficiency. Water efficient fixtures reduce consumption by up to 40 per cent compared with baseline standards, while energy efficient lighting and smart building controls support lower carbon operations.
Situated to promote active travel and public transport access, the office reduces reliance on vehicles and supports healthier lifestyles in line with LEED and WELL objectives. Amey said these features reflected its broader ambition to embed sustainable design principles across its workspaces.
It concluded that its decision to expand in Dublin represents a “significant vote of confidence in Ireland’s infrastructure sector and our skilled workforce”, added that the investment would create high-quality jobs and support long-term career opportunities for people across the country.
