Christina Cullinane
Group Finance Manager
I have worked for Dairygold since 2016. I studied Food Science in UCC as I felt a natural draw to the Food Industry, especially the Dairy Industry. I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Dairygolds Graduate Programme. I entered as a Production Graduate and was working Shift work almost immediately which while challenging, brought its own rewards. Roles on the Graduate Programme have “meat on the bones” and you will be encouraged to take ownership for real life business decisions. There is a good support network there to ensure you will be shown everything that you need. You will meet some great people along the way on the Graduate Programme. I do believe that the Graduate Programme helped me get to my current role in Dairygold by giving me the right tools early in my working life.

Commercial Finance Graduate
Dairygold acquired the business I worked for in 2000 when I was working in Operations. Since then, I’ve enjoyed a progressive career spending valuable time in Customer Marketing, Customer Relationship Management and now have responsibility for Procurement across DFI Overseas businesses in the UK & Germany. The fast-paced nature of our industry means no two days are the same and I have the independence to make decisions which will have a real bearing on the Business’s performance. I like having that accountability. Dairygold is a great place to work. Colleagues are supportive and care passionately about the responsibilities we all have in delivering on the promises we make to our customers. Teamwork and collaboration are critical success factors.
