The announcement comes as part of an ongoing commitment to develop and champion the North West for the of innovation and talent that exists in the North West. Speaking on the further growth here, Founder of FinTrU, Darragh McCarthy said that the company has been blown away by the talent available in the North West and have surpassed their initial jobs target a year ahead of schedule.

It’s been incredible to watch the growth of such a fantastic indigenous company over the past decade. Their strategy to attract, develop and retain the best talent in the marketplace has led many graduates from local universities joining the FinTrU team. FinTrU has also facilitated the return of experienced professionals to the North West and it is this success story that led FinTrU to win the Large Business of the Year at the North West Business Awards in 2022.

Founded in 2013 by Darragh McCarthy, FinTrU is a multi-award-winning technologically enabled Regulatory Solutions company that works with Global Investment Banks. FinTrU specialises in the areas of KYC, Compliance, Legal, Risk & Controls and Operations. It’s not surprise that the Financial Times has named FinTrU as one of Europe’s fastest growing companies for two years in succession.

We are so excited to see the impact that this expansion will have on the North West from offering valuable job opportunities for graduates to facilitating talent returning to the North West and people seeking career changes. The contribution of £8.6m to the local economy will have a huge impact that we’re sure will be felt across the entire North West and Northern Ireland!
