We are Nucleo

Our mission is to empower businesses with intelligent solutions that drive meaningful change by transforming data into actionable insights, enhancing customer experiences through innovations across people, process and technology, and creating value for stakeholders at every level.

We are committed to delivering sustainable, technology-driven strategies that help businesses not only adapt but thrive in an ever-evolving digital landscape.

Our Values

Trust that Delivers
We build trust through connection, by being present, honest, and consistent in how we show up. Every engagement begins with clear intent and transparent communication from day one, by working alongside your people, not around you.  
People First
We're a team that backs each other. That means pitching in, sharing knowledge, and leading with humility. We bring care, humour, and pride to our work and believe that how we treat each other is just as important as what we deliver. 
Quality Without Compromise
We take pride in working thoughtfully and thoroughly, with close attention to detail. Getting it right matters, and every job deserves the same high standards from start to finish. With consistency and precision, our approach is grounded in integrity and backed by data.  
Diverse Voices, Better Results
Different backgrounds, experiences and ways of thinking make us better. We respect what everyone brings to the table and create space for our people to be heard and to grow. When our teams are stronger, so is our work.  
Always Evolving
Growth doesn't come from staying comfortable. We embrace change, challenge the norm and always look for smarter ways to work. We invest in our people so they can drive impact where it matters most. Together, we’re always evolving, learning and ready for what’s next.  

Our Journey

First steps: BS2 was founded

Our CEO, Robert Brown, founded the company he called BS2 in Dublin. His vision was to deliver innovative, data-driven solutions that empower businesses to make smarter decisions.

Early growth: A rising profile

Just four years later, we secured a contract with a major utilities client, marking our first IBM Maximo assignment and taking a key step in establishing our global presence.

Key partnerships: A major leap

We were then awarded transformation contracts with a major utilities client and a leading FinTech client. These long-standing partnerships have continued to evolve, as we support their ongoing success in a changeable environment.

Building Industry Trust

This was followed by our appointment as a preferred vendor on a major national utility’s IT and Data Services Framework, further solidifying our expertise and trusted partnership in the industry.

New name, new opportunities

BS2 was relaunched as Nucleo, with Jody Gilhooly joining Robert Brown as co-founder. We then embarked on a period of rapid expansion, growing our headcount by 300% in subsequent years.

Continuous growth and expansion

We expanded our operations with the launch of a new hub in Cork. In the same year, we secured a contract with a third major utilities client, further expanding our impact in the sector.

A bright future

We recently opened a new office in Dublin city centre. As we continue to grow, we have expanded our divisions, services, and our portfolio of clients across multiple sectors. 

2025 marked our expansion into the UK, bringing our collaboration, consultancy, and expertise to a new market.
