Liz Shouldice is the Chief People Officer at Lakeland Dairies, bringing a wealth of experience and passion to her role. Inspired by Lakeland’s pivotal role in Ireland’s economy and our ambitious future strategy, Liz saw an opportunity to leverage her expertise to make a real impact.
"Lakeland Dairies is a gem of a business with huge ambition and capability. Leading the multifaceted Human Resources department allows me to create and implement a people strategy that drives long-term business success," says Liz.
In her role, Liz oversees Leadership, Organisational Development, Change Management, Diversity & Inclusion, Employee Engagement & Wellness, and Talent Development.
Liz’s journey began with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, followed by a career that took her from IBM Microelectronics to Bord Gáis Eireann, and then to senior roles at DAA and the National Lottery. Her focus has always been on transforming businesses, building strong teams and cultures, and delivering a best-in-class service for employees.
Outside of work, Liz is no stranger to challenges. She developed a passion for swimming and kayaking, eventually becoming a successful kayak racer on the Irish team winning many World Cup and National titles. More recently, she has taken up triathlons. She also completed her first full Ironman in Frankfurt in July 2023, followed by another just a few weeks ago!
"I stay motivated by working with great people, solving problems, and creating excellent employee experiences. Mentoring young talent is one of the most positive and impactful things any leader can do, and it’s a key opportunity for Lakeland Dairies to grow and retain our talent."
