INTO Kildare has confirmed the appointment of Chloe McGrory as Tourism Manager, recognising her contribution to the organisation and her role in driving the development and promotion of tourism across County Kildare. McGrory has been part of the INTO Kildare team for four years, having previously held the position of Sales and Marketing Executive. During this time, she has supported the organisation’s work with tourism businesses and stakeholders across the county while helping to raise the profile of Kildare as a destination for domestic and international visitors.
McGrory worked closely with tourism businesses, industry stakeholders and Kildare County Council in her previous role. She developed a strong understanding of the tourism industry, the members and the opportunities that exist across the county. Her appointment came at a time when County Kildare prepared to maximise several opportunities, including the National Ploughing Championships in Rathangan in September 2027 and the Irish Open at The K Club, as Kildare benefited from the increased international profile and visitor interest that came with 2027 being a Ryder Cup year. Alongside these major events, opportunities continued to develop and promote Kildare’s food, heritage, golf, equestrian, outdoor and cultural tourism offering.
McGrory’s enthusiasm for Kildare, combined with her experience, industry relationships and knowledge of destination marketing and development, placed her in a position to take on this role. She will work closely with tourism businesses, industry stakeholders and Kildare County Council to help drive the continued development of tourism across the county and identify new opportunities for growth and collaboration.
David Kelly, Chairman of INTO Kildare, shared: “We are delighted to announce Chloe’s appointment as Tourism Manager. Chloe has made a significant contribution to INTO Kildare since joining the organisation and has developed a strong understanding of our tourism industry, our members and the opportunities that exist across the county. Her enthusiasm for Kildare, combined with her experience, industry relationships and knowledge of destination marketing and development, make her ideally placed to take on this role.”
