Brendan Murphy University College Dublin Engineering I was looking at different graduate programmes and one that stood out for me was Glanbia. The opportunity to work with one of the biggest multinational dairy producers as a mechanical engineer, with the potential to work abroad, really grabbed me.

In terms of work life balance, we do so much in Glanbia. We have a soccer team and regularly play tag rugby too. The culture is fantastic, everyone really looks out for each other. All of the grads are very tight and regularly meet up at different activities and events which is great.

The Glanbia Pure Ambition Programme is more than just work; it’s a global community experience.

You’ll be in a unique position to connect, socialise and build relationships with a network of talented people across all levels of the organisation that will benefit you throughout your career.

At Glanbia, we see diversity as a strength to be celebrated. We treat every single member of the team with respect, regardless of age, background, race, religion, gender or sexuality.

Happy, healthy employees are those with a strong work-life balance and we continuously strive to deliver initiatives that improve the working environment. There are tons of opportunities to find a balance in a calendar packed with social activities, sporting events, wellness programmes and corporate responsibility initiatives.

The culture is fantastic, everyone really looks out for each other.

If you’re hardworking and eager to learn, Glanbia is a fantastic place to build your career.
