Digital health platform to create 200 new jobs in the next year

Spectrum.Life is looking to hire skilled professionals based in Ireland and the UK, as well as remotely, to expand the workforce to a team of 500 people, by the end of 2025.

Digital health company Spectrum.Life has announced plans to recruit 200 new employees, based in Ireland, the UK and remotely. The strategy was announced last night (8 October) at Enterprise Ireland’s UK and Irish business leaders dinner, by the Irish Ambassador to Great Britain, Martin Fraser. 

The company previously revealed that it had recently surpassed 300 employees, and underlined its commitment to hiring 200 more in the next 12 months. With plans to solidify its position in the quickly evolving healthtech industry, Spectrum.Life is looking to recruit skilled professionals across a range of sectors, including in clinical positions, senior leadership and business development.

“We are incredibly proud of our talented team and the impact they make every day,” said Stephen Costello, co-founder and CEO of Spectrum.Life. 

“Our commitment to job creation in Ireland and the UK reflects our vision of leading the healthtech industry driven by both our people and our innovative solutions that save and improve lives. As we expand, Spectrum.Life remains steadfast in its mission to revolutionise digital mental health.” 

Leo Clancy, the CEO of Enterprise Ireland, who was in attendance at last night’s event, welcomed the plans stating  “across the UK and Ireland, Spectrum.Life is providing digital mental health and wellbeing support to thousands of organisations. The addition of these 200 roles across the UK, Ireland and globally will support the company’s growth trajectory as more organisations adopt healthtech solutions.”

In October of last year the company announced a £4m expansion into Northern Ireland, as well as the creation of 60 new roles based around the region. Additionally, earlier this summer, Spectrum.Life revealed it had raised €17m to be put towards expansion into new markets, with particular focus on partnering with universities, insurers and corporations.
