John Moloney has resigned from the board of Glanbia and as group managing director. He will continue on the board of Glanbia Ingredients Ireland, the group’s 40% associate. This follows Glanbia’s announcement last May that Moloney wished to retire in late 2013 and that Siobhán Talbot would succeed him. Talbot, who has served as group managing director designate since June, becomes group MD with immediate effect. She was previously group finance director, where her role encompassed responsibility for group strategic planning.
