There’s huge variety to any given working day at Cora, given our client roster straddles a range of industries – from aviation to utilities – and locations across the globe. It makes for a really exciting and stimulating workplace.

Although Cora has always operated with some remote team members, the company went fully remote when the Covid-19 Coronavirus pandemic took hold.
Our adaption to remote working was swift and delivered many benefits to all team members, as you will see in this clip:
In March 2021 Cora won a prestigious CIPD “workplace wellbeing” award for some of the schemes we implemented to adjust to a new working world.
You will be rewarded with a competitive salary, as we believe that salaries should not be lower just because your role will likely be located outside of the country’s capital city. We have the added benefits of life insurance and pension. We encourage team events, run wellness initiatives and are committed to our local communities and charities. Opportunities to travel are available for those interested in seeing more of the world while also working to deliver for our clients.
Our headquarters are based in Carrick-on-Shannon, one of Ireland’s most picturesque towns, renowned for its variety of hospitality options. Located in the west of Ireland, the town and surrounding areas benefit from accommodation costs that are below the national average. In addition, there are excellent cultural, educational, leisure and shopping facilities.
Bedford is a city with a rich history and is an enchanting place to live. It benefits from excellent transport links and has the advantage of being close to London (it’s about an hour’s drive to the city), but far enough so that accommodation is reasonably priced. Our office is located near the high street, so there’s plenty of dining options available on our doorstep.
Cora has established an office in San Jose, California to liaise with our growing client base in North America. San Jose is, of course, home to Silicon Valley, the world’s epi-centre of tech innovation. It’s also a wonderful place to live and work, as it hugs the Pacific Ocean and is on the doorstep of the breathtaking Yosemite national wildlife park.
Because we operate at the cutting-edge of technologies, we are constantly innovating and learning. Career development and training needs vary between individuals so we allocate a training budget to each person and will work with them on a personalized career development plan.
We allow people to transfer between teams and are passionate about cross-functional teams working on innovation projects. Whether you are starting out in your career, would like to try your hand at mentoring, or finish exams, or would love to manage a team, we can actively support you in your career aims.
We operate a two-week, on-boarding program so that our new recruits hit the ground running. We allow our people the time and space to learn our software and processes as we recognize that our technologies and methodologies require expertise. We have built up and are very mindful of keeping a company culture in which we all help each other.
Recruitment for our business graduate training program commences each summer for an autumn start date with us. Recruitment for our software development graduate training program commences each winter for a spring start.
We take enormous pride in the work we complete and the relationships we build with our clients.
We always strive to hire and grow the best talent in our area, and to invest in your future once you decide to join our family. It’s one of the four pillars of our company strategy.
Everyone at Cora is encouraged to bring their own flair to their role and to contribute at the highest level they possibly can. The wonderful thing is that it means you can really see your own stamp on the success of our company, which is personally very rewarding.
Club Cora is our after work-hours social club, which runs some cool events such as games nights, go-karting, comedy nights, table quizzes as well as the annual Christmas party and our memorable summer BBQs. Events are usually held once a quarter. We also host online events, which help bring our remote teams closer together.
