Life insurance provider with multi-country operations and Microsoft-centric tech infrastructure
Neilson Financial Services is a life insurance provider operating across five countries (UK, USA, Canada, Ireland, Australia) with a 501–1,000-person workforce. The tech stack is Microsoft-heavy (Azure, M365, Entra ID, Intune) with modern frontend frameworks (React, Vue, Angular) and automation tools (n8n, Zapier, Terraform). Current projects signal a cloud modernization and automation push: Azure platform migration, CI/CD standardization, provisioning automation, and an AI helpdesk bot. Hiring velocity is accelerating with sales roles dominating (11 of 27 active roles), suggesting a push to scale lead management and customer acquisition across new markets.
