My name is Christopher Maguire, and I completed a level eight honours degree in rural enterprise and agri-business in Atlantic Technological University in Co. Galway Ireland. This commenced in September 2018 and completed in May 2022. My graduation took place in November 2022. A period of work experience was carried out for twelve weeks as a module in year two.

KEPAK

Currently I am working in operations which I am enjoying. Operations involves all the actions in the daily running of the boning hall. I am working in the re-work section of operations. This involves revamping products as there may have issues regarding labels, packaging of the product or the quality of the product.

I have been involved in a project regarding the vl that Kepak Ballybay is purchasing and producing burgers to sell to McDonald’s. My role in this project is to monitor the cl of the beef, monitor the weight of the bins being shipped and to illustrate the data collected on an excel sheet.

I am finding my managers and colleagues very friendly and approachable. All senior management are always willing to answer questions and point you in the right direction. I can see myself progressing into operations or production as I have a keen interest in these two departments from my time as a graduate so far.
