Meet JohnPaul Harkin, our Regional Team Leader, North West Ireland.

JP grew up on his parents' suckler beef and sheep unit, and knew from an early age he wanted a career in agriculture. After stints in sales and livestock procurement - including three years managing a large unit in Saudi Arabia - he joined us in 2008 and now leads our team across North West Ireland ๐Ÿ‘

At home he keeps a small flock of sheep and stays busy with four young children.
