Talbot has been with the group for over a decade and has held roles including group operating executive, deputy finance director and then group finance director. A replacement for her role will be appointed “in due course”, Glanbia said.
Moloney will step down by the end of the year. Of his departure, he said: “I feel that after 12 years at the helm and over 25 years with the group it is the right time for all concerned to pass the leadership of Glanbia to someone new. I am delighted that Siobhán Talbot has been appointed as my successor. She brings a drive, energy, deep knowledge and commitment to her role that will move the hroup to the next phase of growth and development.”
