We’re building something new. As part of Optum Ireland’s continued investment in talent and innovation, we are establishing a brand-new Talent Acquisition team dedicated to supporting our rapidly evolving business.

If you’re a proactive, curious individual with a passion for talent and talent solutions, we’d love to hear from you.
