Alltech
Working at our organisation
Our founder, Dr. Pearse Lyons, started Alltech with the vision to sustain & nourish the world’s plants, animals & people. As an entrepreneur & scientist, he stayed curious and inspired everyone he met, especially his global team. He created roles & futures for people, and empowered everyone to dream big and make a difference.
That spirit lives on through his son, Dr. Mark Lyons, our President & CEO. Throughout his Alltech career, Mark held different roles across the business, lived in different countries, met many team members and constantly learned something new. He knows first-hand how dynamic, engaging and compelling careers at Alltech can be for everyone.
No matter where you are or want to be at Alltech, our team will help you get there.
