Deutsche Bank to expand Irish workforce

German banking giant Deutsche Bank is to add nearly 200 jobs to its Irish-based workforce over the next six months.

The global investment, commercial and retail banking group yesterday officially opened a new ‘data lab’ in Dublin.

Formally known as ‘The Hive’ — which will be a global centre of excellence employing data science, visualisation, analytics, and technology specialists — it is already operational and houses a staff of 70.
