I see that I might finally get my chance to give my tuppence on Irish butter in the US. Ornua, the maker of Kerrygold, is advertising to fill the role of “global head of brand marketing”, a job which the co-op says will “shape the future of Kerrygold”.

The successful candidate will be responsible, among other things, for ensuring Kerrygold remains “commercially successful in a changing consumer, competitive and retail landscape”.

Only for the fact that they have a requirement for three days a week in the office, I’d be sending them a CV right away. Spending that much time in the big smoke wouldn’t suit me.
