Revolut, the global fintech with more than 40 million customers around the world, and 2.7 million in Ireland, has today announced it expects to boost its global headcount by 40% in 2024. The announcement comes as the company reaches 10,000 employees globally, and continues to grow its workforce, all whilst many other financial institutions are making job cuts or hiring freezes. The company currently has over 75 roles advertised in Ireland.
The company has grown exponentially since its founding in 2015. Revolut started the year with just over 8,000 employees, but has reached the 10,000 milestone in little over three months. The financial institution plans to continue to build out its Sales, Customer Support and FinCrime teams, for which the majority of new roles will be created.
Maurice Murphy, General Manager Revolut Bank UAB – Ireland Branch, commented: “With every new Revoluter we hire, we’re thinking about how they’ll help us drive even more positive impact for our customers. 10,000 employees is an exciting milestone but we’re not stopping there. We’re continuing to recruit the best talent across the industry and are excited to be expanding across a range of specialties as we continue to build Revolut worldwide.”
As a remote-first business, Revolut is able to access a wider talent pool by hiring from across the country and offering employees more flexibility in where they work. Revolut also continues to be an employer of choice for prospective candidates, having received over one million job applications globally in 2023. The Company was also certified a Great Place to Work across eight of its markets.
