Event overview

As the world of work continues to evolve, being clear on your HR priorities for 2027 is essential. The Dublin HR Conference brings together HR professionals, business owners and decision-makers for practical insight, guidance, and structured peer discussion. This year we are adding topic specific roundtable discussions to make the morning more interactive and tailored.

Across the morning, we will cover key people priorities for 2027, including culture and values, reward and employee benefits, and the latest employment law updates including a comprehensive overview of pay transparency. The Dublin conference also includes topical round table discussions led by our wider NFP teams across Employee Benefits, Learning and Development, Health and Wellbeing, and Wealth, so you can focus on the areas most relevant to your organisation and leave with clear next steps.

The morning will finish with lunch and networking, giving you time to connect with peers and speak with our specialists. As a ticketed event, attendance is limited to support a high-quality experience and meaningful discussion.
