Twitter Ireland’s managing director Sinéad McSweeney is no stranger to controversy. In 2004, she took up the role as head of communications for the Police Service of Northern Ireland, a role that presented many challenges. “Obviously, as always happens in Northern Ireland, there were people who will for their own political reasons choose to take a side on an issue. It also precipitated the departure of Mark Little as Twitter Ireland’s managing director, after which McSweeney stepped into the role. McSweeney doesn’t want to revisit the darker days when Twitter was shedding staff and its future looked uncertain.
