I joined Perigord Nov 1st 2019- 19 months

I am The Global Commercial Director- Working with and leading a team of dedicated and experienced professionals my responsibilities include – Market and New product development, Marketing and Bid management

I get to work across all areas of the business and with people in different functions and Geographies, so I would define my role as exciting, verified and fast paced, no day is the same.

There has been a number of achievements that come to mind, but the first thing that stands out and that makes me most proud, is the recognition the team are getting for their work , yes that is what makes me most proud

In the early days I thought working from home was going to be a challenge but in fact I am surprised how much I have adapted and how much more productive I have become. I haven’t taken up any new hobbies or interests but have found that without distraction I have more time to spend on my running and painting.

Knowing that if I wanted to I could get on a plane and fly to my favourite place, the Island of Korcula in Croatia- Oh and a haircut

A young couple living close to us just had a new baby girl, seeing the pride on their face was really magical and made me smile

I have lived in my current home for 24 years it is 25 minutes from the office in the Dublin suburbs of Leixlip, it’s a not big but is surround by country side parks and rivers “ I love it”. I didn’t grow up here but it is the longest I have lived in one place so I have to say it is home

My family laugh but I love simple Greek salad - AND CRISPS with DIET COKE

A Run– the thought of a run – I run every second day

1984 by George Orwell
