This week’s guest in John Healy. John is managing of Allstate in Northern Ireland, the technology arm of a US insurance giant. He speaks to John Mulgrew about hiring more than 300 staff amid lockdown, the pluses and minuses of the NI Protocol, and that some firms are seeing a boon from it, why political stability remains key and front and centre when attracting foreign investment, the firm’s decision not to open a new office in Derry’s Ebrington Square, but why the office is far from dead.
