Background

About Barry Campion

I am a 2017 graduate of University College Dublin with a First-Class Honours MSc in Environmental Sustainability having previously graduated from UCD with a Bachelor’s Degree of Commerce in 2007. I am currently employed as a Recovery and Recycling Executive with Repak, who operate as a compliance scheme for packaging waste in Ireland. I was previously employed by TMS Environment Ltd as an Environmental Scientist where we provided environmental monitoring and laboratory services to both the public and private sectors. Prior to this I was employed by Evolution Environmental Services as an environmental inspector, enforcing compliance with conditions of the trade effluent licence on behalf Irish Water. Before embarking on a career in the environmental sustainability sector I had over 7 years experience in the financial services sector with both Deutsche Bank and Allied Irish Bank. While working for Allied Irish Bank I gained some valuable experience in the Energy & Environmental Management Department and conducted a Research Project which focused on waste reduction and the impact of reusable coffee cups in an office setting. The project achieved a 44% reduction in total waste and won the Facilities Management CSR Initiative of the Year Award 2018. Areas of study I particularly focused on throughout my Masters include Environmental Impact Assessment, Waste Management, Conservation, Sustainable Energy, Water Quality Assessment and Pollution. During my time in the Energy Management Department in AIB I worked on projects such as AIB's Carbon Disclosure Project 2015 and helped coordinate AIB's participation in Earth Hour in March 2016.
