ABOUT JOHN MORAN
John Moran is the first directly elected Mayor of Limerick, inaugurated on June 21, 2024, following a historic public vote. Born in Birmingham, England, in the mid-1960s, he was raised on his family's farm in Patrickswell, County Limerick, and later in Dooradoyle. He attended St. Paul’s National School and CBS Sexton Street before earning a law degree from University College Dublin and a master's from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Moran is also a solicitor and a member of the New York Bar.
His diverse career spans law, finance, and public service. He worked as a Wall Street lawyer and investment banker before returning to Ireland to serve as Secretary General of the Department of Finance from 2012 to 2014. Moran was instrumental in managing Ireland's economic recovery during the financial crisis. He has also served on the boards of the European Investment Bank and Shannon Airport Group.
As Mayor, Moran aims to transform Limerick into a more sustainable, inclusive, and prosperous city-region. His vision includes enhancing quality of life, fostering economic growth, and promoting environmental sustainability.
