The number of Enterprise Ireland supported jobs by county in each of the years 2010 to 2021 is set out in tabular form below.

In 2021, there were 20,342 new jobs created by companies supported by Enterprise Ireland, resulting in a net job increase of 11,911 when job losses are taken into account. Total employment by companies supported by Enterprise Ireland in 2021 was 207,894.

It is important to note, that in line with Enterprise Ireland’s new strategy, a revision of the population of companies included in the Annual Employment Survey was undertaken, including companies recently acquired or those whose strategy or need to engage with Enterprise Ireland had changed. As a result, the changes to the baseline survey population reduced the total employment in Enterprise Ireland client companies and is reflected in the table below.
