FORMER Irish rugby international, Mr Brendan Mullin (32) has joined Goodbody Stockbrokers to take up a new position in its corporate development business. He previously worked with Davy Stockbrokers.

It is understood his appointment precedes a restructuring of the stockbroking firm, with Mr Mullin expected to assume a director's role working closely with managing director Mr Barrett. Mr Mullin had worked on the private client side of Davy Stockbrokers for much of his seven years at that firm.
