McBreen Environmental Celebrates HR Awards Recognition as It Marks 20 Years in Business

As McBreen Environmental celebrates 20 years in business in 2026, there's another reason to recognise the people behind our success.

The company was recently named a finalist in two categories at the HR Leadership & Management Awards, recognising our commitment to employee development, training and workplace culture.

The nominations were received in:

• Excellence in Workplace Training & Development

• Best Culture Transformation Project / Initiative

Our HR & Training team, Andrea, Aileen and Ciara, attended the awards to represent McBreen Environmental and celebrate the work taking place behind the scenes to support our growing workforce.

For anyone considering a career with McBreen Environmental, this recognition offers an insight into the importance we place on our people.

20 Years of Growth, Built on Our People

Founded in 2006, McBreen Environmental has grown from its roots in Cavan into a nationwide drainage and environmental services business.

Today, our operations extend across Ireland, with locations in Cavan, Dublin, Cork, Louth, Galway and Roscommon, supporting customers in the domestic, commercial, industrial and public sectors.

As we approach our 20th anniversary in December 2026, we're reflecting on how far the business has come, while continuing to invest in the people, equipment and expertise needed for the future.

Behind that growth are the teams who keep our operations moving every day.
