NI firm strengthens its operations in Ballymena

Northern Ireland food company Moy Park is opening its door for new colleagues as it restarts the live processing line at its Ballymena facility this November.

The roles include permanent positions across a wide range of functions within the business, including operations, production, engineering and apprenticeships.

Speaking about the opportunities and the boost to the local economy, Gary Leslie, director of operations, Moy Park, said: “We are thrilled to be able to welcome new team members into Ballymena as our live processing line restarts.

"This brings with it fantastic career opportunities as we continue to invest in our people and facilities to deliver high quality, sustainable food.

“We have roles available across our operations with positions for people whatever stage they are at in their career journey. Recruits will benefit from a competitive package and the wealth of training and career progression programmes we have in place.”

With the company strengthening its operations in Ballymena, Gary says the news is also a welcomed one for its Northern Ireland farming partners.

He added: “We’ll be working closely with our farming and supply chain partners as customer demand for our products grows in future.

"We’re proud of our strong agricultural heritage and the commitment of our farmers to our high standards across animal welfare and environmental sustainability.”

Moy Park is also hosting a recruitment evening in Craigavon next week as the firm launches another recruitment campaign.
