Certa Ireland is a wholly owned subsidiary of DCC plc and is part of the Energy Division of the Group. We were born out of the combination of successful Irish energy brands. We are one of the country’s leading home heating oil, commercial fuel, and agricultural diesel suppliers, in addition to other business divisions including retail forecourts, fuel card services and lubricants. In recent years Certa Ireland has grown with the acquisition of Campus Oil, Jones Oil, two lubricant businesses, and the establishment of the Certa forecourt network. What unites each of these brands is a powerful entrepreneurial spirit, a culture of high performance and agility and is underpinned by exceptionally strong customer service.
DCC plc is one of Ireland’s most successful organisations, operating in various sectors including Energy, Technology and Healthcare. With annual sales of over €18 billion, and operations in 21 countries spanned over 3 continents, DCC employs more than 15,400 people around the globe. Being a part of our parent company means that while we retain the agility and local resonance of a smaller organisation, we also benefit from the strength and scale of our parent company.
Our business has experienced significant growth and expansion recently and at Certa Ireland, we recognise that our people are key to our continued success. Attracting, retaining, and developing our employees are key priorities and we have an ambitious People Strategy & programme of HR activities planned.
