Orbitus plans doubling of workforce following launch of HR division
Irish legal and tax advisory firm Orbitus has launched a premium human resources (HR) offering. The new division, headed by seasoned HR specialist Jennifer O’Brien (pictued), will provide support to organisations across the full spectrum of HR requirements, from day-to-day employee relations to more complex organisational change. Services will include strategic workforce planning, compliance with employment legislation, policy development, recruitment processes, employee engagement, training, and organisational culture.
The firm opened its headquarters in Cork in October 2022 and began operations in September 2023 with four employees in their Tralee office and has since grown to a team of 32.
Recruitment is underway for 15 additional positions across technology, customer experience, and tax. Over the next 12 to 24 months, Orbitus expects to more than double its workforce, with opportunities offered in both remote and hybrid positions.
To support this growth, the firm has recently relocated to a larger office in Tralee. The new premises, designed to accommodate an expanding team and enhanced operational needs, marks a significant milestone in the company’s development.
O’Brien said, “Irish employers are navigating a complex and fast-evolving HR landscape. From talent shortages and hybrid working models to growing compliance demands and rising employee expectations, there is significant pressure on organisations to adapt quickly and strategically. At the same time, this presents a real opportunity for employers to differentiate by investing in culture, leadership, and long-term workforce planning. Our aim at Orbitus is to provide practical, joined-up guidance that aligns people strategy with business goals, enabling our clients to not only meet today’s challenges but to thrive in the future of work.”
