Finding the Right Talent for Digital Transformation
While Ireland is recognised as a global leader in the field of dairy production, the sector remains quite traditional in its approach. Innovation and technology play a key part in creating production processes optimised for efficiency, quality and sustainability.
The organisation undertook a large scale transformation which saw a €78m investment in a new production facility in West Cork. In line with this investment, a new position of Chief Information Officer was established to drive transformation across the enterprise
Finding the right talent would play a key part in Carbery’s Digital Transformation programme. As such, Carbery required the support of a recruitment partner with the insight, skill and market reach to source and assess the most suitable candidates.
