The hiring mix reflects operational maturity: data, compliance, and risk roles dominate, signaling heavy investment in data governance and regulatory infrastructure—a pattern typical of insurance firms managing capital adequacy models and stress-testing frameworks under Central Bank of Ireland oversight.
