Taoiseach welcomes announcement
New start-up to hire 80 people

The company has begun a major recruitment drive in the region.

ZeroRisk, an Irish start-up setting up a new facility in Longford has announced plans to employ up to 80 people in the area in the coming year.

The company has begun a major recruitment drive in the region and is interested in applicants with EMEA language skills to support its global customer base. ZeroRisk provides SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) to some of the largest financial institutions in the world.  

The company was set up in 2023 by Gary Nolan and has offices in Dublin and Georgia in the United States. 

Welcoming the announcement, Taoiseach Micheál Martin said: "ZeroRisk’s expansion of its Irish operations with a new, dedicated European support centre is a vote of confidence in our highly skilled workforce and our focus on supporting businesses to invest in Ireland. Creating over 80 new jobs, this is a huge boost to Longford and the surrounding region.” 

The company said the jobs being advertised will play a key part in delivering onboarding, compliance, and cyber risk services to merchants and financial institutions operating in multiple countries and languages from across Europe and further afield.    

The company’s growth has been driven by increasing demand from financial institutions seeking more effective ways to manage compliance and cyber risk across large merchant portfolios. The company’s platform enables acquiring banks and payment providers to automate compliance, monitor cyber threats in real time, and gain actionable insights into merchant risk.
