Old Mutual South Africa Tech Stack
Pan-African financial services group across insurance, investments, and retirement planning
Old Mutual operates a large, sales-driven organization across 14 African countries and China with 30,000+ employees and 919 active job openings. The hiring profile—799 sales roles against 4 engineering spots—reflects a distribution and advice-led business model rather than a tech-first operation. Active projects center on digital banking adoption, enterprise risk management, and customer data analytics, while pain points cluster around sales expansion, compliance, and customer retention—typical of a mature financial institution managing regulatory complexity and relationship depth across fragmented markets.
