Aon hiring 30 people at innovation and analytics centre in Dublin
Provider of risk management and other services Aon is creating 30 new highly skilled jobs at its centre for innovation and analytics in Dublin, which opened in 2008 and already employs 100 people.
The innovation and analytics team in Dublin has designed and developed the world’s largest proprietary platform of insurance placement data.

The new roles will strengthen ACIA’s expertise in the domains of IT specifically in data warehousing, database management, application development, business intelligence and data visualisation as well as in data science – in the areas of statistics, data modelling and predictive analytics.
