OUR STAFF
Moira McGrath
President
Moira McGrath is president of OPUS International, Inc., the company she founded in 1993 in response to the Food Science industry’s growing demand for highly specialized, professional executive placement assistance. Following graduation from Cornell University, Moira focused her early career on hotel and restaurant operations and management, which involved recruitment of hospitality industry executives. This, in turn, led to interest in the deeper aspects of food as a science -- and to the careers of the people who are the industry.
In related volunteer activities, Moira has served on the Advisory Councils for both Cornell’s Food Science Department and Texas A&M University’s newly formed Nutrition and Food Science Department. In the fall of 2008, she began her term as Advisory Council member at the University of Florida’s Food Science department. In September, 2006, she began her three year term on the Board of Directors for the Institute of Food Technologists, and has served on several IFT task forces including the Task Force on Strategic Development. In South Florida, she has been involved with the local IFT Section since 1996.
She is a member of Toastmasters International in Delray Beach, Florida, and the founder of “In Search Of”, a local organization of executive recruiters. She was also a contributing author of ‘Careers in Food Science”, published in 2008.
