When I came to Ardmac I had just completed my masters in HR and was lucky to see a two week position advertised with Ardmac to help with processing some HR data. Two weeks quickly passed, and I was delighted to be asked to stay and join the HR team.
Over the years my role has progressed with a lot of extra duties and responsibility year on year.

There is never a dull moment!
