Deriv Cyprus has marked its 5th anniversary by being named a Best Workplace™ in Cyprus for 2025. Founded in 1999, Deriv, the online trading leader established its Cyprus operations in 2020 and has quickly built an exceptional workplace culture in one of its key European markets.
This is the second time it has been named a top work place in Cyprus by Great Place to Work® Cyprus, claiming the fourth spot in 2024 in the same category.
Geo Nicolaidis, Director, Deriv Cyprus said: "Being named one of Cyprus' best workplaces is the perfect fifth birthday present for our team. This award celebrates what we've built together during these five years—a collaborative environment where talented professionals thrive while pursuing ambitious goals. That we have moved up a spot to third place since last year nicely reflects our culture at Deriv; we're always looking to improve and grow, ready to take on the next challenge."
Deriv Cyprus was assessed based on employee feedback collected by the Great Places to Work organisation, highlighting Deriv's commitment to professional development and personal well-being.
“In a competitive talent landscape, this award demonstrates what matters most to us – the actual experience of our people,” said Seema Hallon, Chief Human Resources Officer at Deriv. “Our Cyprus team exemplifies how we approach workplace culture globally: with authenticity, purpose, and a focus on meaningful work.”
This strong workplace culture is providing the foundation for Deriv's ambitious plans moving forward. In 2025, Deriv announced it would move forward with a focus on transforming itself into an AI-first business, with the intention of driving innovation across the company and shaking up the online trading industry. Alongside upskilling its existing workforce of 1,400, hiring AI specialists will play a key role in this transformation.
Hallon continued: “As we expand our AI-first approach across all operations, we’re creating roles that challenge and engage our teams in solving complex trading problems.”
Deriv Cyprus is open to hiring competent and driven individuals for multiple roles that will support the company's growth and AI transformation goals.
The award in Cyprus strengthens Deriv's global employer brand, with seven offices worldwide – including the UK, Paraguay, France, Jordan, Malta, and Rwanda – recently renewing their Great Place to Work® certifications.
