The Collyer Quay lease will support Revolut’s plans to grow its local workforce to more than 300 employees in the next three years.

The company, which grew its headcount by 95 per cent in 2025, now employs about 170 staff. Hiring will focus primarily on engineering, product management, data science and artificial intelligence.

Roles that are classified as tech professionals include artificial intelligence, data and cybersecurity, all of which IMDA noted were among the fastest-growing tech occupations.

Overall, tech professionals accounted for 5.4 per cent of total employment in Singapore, up from 5.3 per cent in 2024 and 5.2 per cent in 2023.

The median monthly wage for tech jobs stood at S$8,000, a slight increase from S$7,950 in 2024.

If a website, phone number or social media page is linked to a scam, Special Constable Sergeant Javier Lau of the police’s Cyber Command can take it down within minutes.

Previously, the process could take up to several hours, as Lau and his team would need to coordinate across multiple departments in the Singapore Police Force.

Lau, 22, a cybercrime operator and a full-time national serviceman, was among several officers from Cyber Command who spoke to the media on Sept 16, two months after the unit was launched on July 3.

The three plots fall within areas that the URA had in 2022 identified for public housing to potentially be built, as part of efforts to mix different housing types to encourage more interaction among residents of different backgrounds.

Injecting public housing and amenities could improve accessibility to facilities for existing residents, and allow for more social mixing, the URA said at an exhibition following its Long-Term Plan Review in that year.

Since then, one of the areas – located next to Upper Changi MRT station – has been used for a Build-To-Order project, Simei Symphony, which became the Housing Board’s first Simei project in over 10 years when it was launched in July 2025.
