Management

At Executive level, the organisation is headed up by the Chief Executive and employs a number of administrative, marketing staff in addition to a nutritionist team. The CEO reports directly to the Board and also acts as Company Secretary. In previous years, the staff numbers have fluctuated with fifteen employed at one point, six of whom were nutritionists. However, in more recent times, with funding decreases, the organisation saw the staff numbers reduce to seven in total.

The appointment of a new CEO Helen Brophy in 2007 has provided the window of opportunity to restructure and revitalise the organisation not only in terms of setting out the new strategic plan but also in undertaking the necessary changes internally to develop a more dynamic and results-driven structure.
