No day has been the same since I started with donnelly fresh. Working across many teams, my role has allowed me to extend my experience across many different responsibilities and interact with multiple teams within the business and various people in the fresh food industry. From my Category and Insights role gaining a greater understanding of our customers and building relationships with our key retailers, to managing the development of the donnelly fresh brand, strengthening our presence and identity within the Irish and International markets, my role has given me the opportunity to be a key member of the donnelly fresh team, helping to build a strong future for the business.

“I began my career at Donnelly Fresh in 2019 as a Productions Supervisor, where I gained valuable experience in managing operations and leading teams.

I then moved into the role of Department/Duty Manager, taking on more responsibilities and driving key initiatives. Recently, I transitioned to the Finance Department, marking an exciting new chapter in my career.
I am also proud to have completed my first year of the ACCA course and am now advancing to the second year.

I find inspiration in the quote, "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful" - Albert Schweitzer.”

“This Summer of 2024, I had the incredible opportunity to intern at Donnelly Fresh with the NPD team. Having only little experience from working in the hospitality industry and from college, it was a big change but everybody was helpful, supportive and most importantly friendly.

I felt like a valued member of the team and not just an intern. In the past few months I’ve learnt so much but most importantly I’ve had hands-on exposure to the industry from NPD to Quality and even Marketing. I’m incredibly grateful for my time at Donnelly Fresh and excited to apply everything I’ve learnt to my future career.”

"I’ve been part of the donnelly fresh team for nearly 2 years now. Starting as a marketing intern, I quickly discovered my passion for digital marketing. I was thrilled to be offered the role of Digital Marketing Executive while I complete my final year of college. Each day at donnelly fresh brings new challenges and opportunities to learn. The dynamic work environment and the encouragement I receive have been instrumental in shaping my career.
What truly makes this experience special is the incredible team I work with—they’re supportive, creative, and always ready to collaborate. Being surrounded by such a great group of people has made all the difference in my growth and success. I'm proud to be part of a team that embraces our company values everyday, and I look forward to seeing what's next on this exciting journey."
