Growing Our Presence in Europe: Welcome to Okta’s New Hub in Dublin

Jimmy Kehoe March 2, 2022

Today we announce our new international hub in Dublin, giving us access to Ireland’s diverse, unique talent pool and continuing Okta’s rapid global growth.

2021 was a big year for Okta. Not only did we celebrate our 13th anniversary, but we also announced our acquisition of leading identity platform Auth0, allowing us to accelerate growth in a burgeoning Identity market. 

We were also – yet again – named as leaders in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Identity and Access Management, making it the fifth year in a row where we’ve claimed the top spot.

I’m delighted to say our success continues as we expand our EMEA presence by opening a new international hub in my hometown, Dublin.

Why Dublin?

I love living in this city. It’s not just a global tech powerhouse, but also an energetic, diverse cultural centre bursting with creativity and innovation. That’s why Dublin is the perfect fit for Okta, as we continue to grow our vision of enabling everyone to safely use any technology. 

Our new Dublin office will be the hotspot for further growth.This international hub will bring together some of the brightest minds in the business, dedicated to building connections between people and technology. Initially, we’ll focus on hiring new talent in customer-facing roles in sales and marketing. But over the next two years, the team will also open up to other business-critical roles, including research & development, accounting, recruitment, and HR.

We’re thrilled to be building a world-class team in Dublin who are passionate about helping companies across Europe be more successful and secure with identity.
