    I started at Moy Park as a Graduate Management trainee in 1998 and have never looked back.

    I was offered a number of opportunities to work in different departments within the company (such as Industrial Engineering, Product Development, Technical Laboratory, Despatch and Projects) before deciding that I wished to explore life in Operations.

    I began as Department Manager in a Prepared Foods Facility and progressed to Factory Manager in 2002. I then took an opportunity to move location from Northern Ireland to England in 2004, where I led a Facility as General Manager until 2008 , then moved to Director of Operations Prepared Foods until 2018 where I was responsible for three facilities – this was an excellent experience for me to Learn, Lead Teams and deliver improvements for the business.

    In 2018 my next opportunity came my way by leading the Operational Excellence Team – responsible for Designing and Implementing an enterprise wide Cultural Change Programme.

    Throughout my journey in the company I have had support and guidance from leadership and colleagues alike. The camaraderie, fellowship and inter-departmental connections in the company are very strong.

    In 2020 I joined the JBS Team with support from the Moy Park Executive to lead the JBS Global Operational Excellence Team. This role allows me to travel the world to identify and understand internal best practice, work with very diverse teams and support the company to improve results.

    During my career Moy Park has supported me with excellent training and development opportunities to ensure I have been ready for each step and continue to do this today.

    I joined Moy Park in 2005 as a Technical graduate, where the foundations set by the graduate programme helped me to grow within the organisation.

    I worked in a number of roles as the opportunities came up across different sites and functions. On completion of the graduate programme, I secured a QA Manager role at our Dungannon site and went on to cover various management roles within Technical.

    In 2014 I relocated to England where I was the site Technical Manager at one of our Fresh sites, an opportunity to be part of the site leadership team.

    Today I lead the Craigavon site as the General Manager, a role that is full of excitement and pace. I support the team with the day to day running of the site and lead over 1500 employees, whilst strategically thinking and planning for the future of the site. My experience within other departments and sites across Moy Park has proven to be the key to my success in this role.

    I have been able to confidently move from Technical to commercial to operations because I have approached each role with an open mind to learn and grow. The support I have received throughout my career has been fantastic and instrumental to my professional journey to date.

    I joined Moy Park as a Graduate Management Trainee in 1998 as part of the Carn Hatchery team after completing a HND in Agriculture followed by a Degree in Agriculture with Animal Science.

    I progressed to Donaghmore Hatchery Manager in 2000. This was an exciting time as the site was completely redeveloped in line with a major Moy Park expansion programme. This position provided me with experience in hatchery development, production planning, incubation, hygiene control, health and safety, personnel management, logistics and dealing with customers and suppliers.

    My next challenge was to come in 2017 when I took on the role of Hatcheries and Egg Logistics Manager for Northern Ireland which assumed responsibility for 3 broiler hatcheries and the operational aspect of the eggs sales division.

    In 2019 I took up the position of Chick Performance Manager. This focus of this role is on the delivery of a high level of early chick performance through collaborating with various teams within the supply chain.

    Moy Park is one of the few complete integrators in the industry, so there's the opportunity to develop your career across different areas of the business within Moy Park but also as part of the wider global business.

    Project Engineer

    No day in the life of a project engineer is ever the same. My day-to-day responsibilities range from installing equipment, such as a new oven or belt in the factory, to overseeing redevelopment work on site. I manage projects from the drawing board (so to speak) to completion.

    For me it's the completion of a project - I love taking a piece of work from the initial concept and making it happen! With new equipment installation I have to factor in factory layout, supply of services, drainage, safety and time scales, whilst ensuring any work I carry out is in line with the day-to-day running of the factory. I have to think of all possibilities to avoid any surprises - even basic things like checking the equipment fits through the doorways! I really enjoy being part of a team.
