Ella Doyle, IT Graduate
How did this opportunity shape your personal or professional journey?
This opportunity has helped me grow both personally and professionally. Through ESB's CSR initiatives, I had the rewarding opportunity to take part in volunteering programmes such as Science Blast and a primary school Reading Programme, which helped build my confidence, communication skills, and sense of community involvement.
Outside of my day-to-day role, ESB also provided many social and sporting opportunities, including 5-a-side football tournaments, a GAA 7s weekend away, and Tag Rugby summer tournaments. These experiences allowed me to meet colleagues from across the organisation, build new connections, and develop teamwork skills in a fun environment.
Graduate roles are available across a range of ESB locations throughout Ireland. Depending on the programme and business area.
The specific location(s) for each role will be outlined in the job description at the time of application.
