Alan Ecock: A Unique Story
Alan Ecock, a banking professional, experienced a sudden twist in his career. For nearly three decades, he worked at a Dublin pub, Kavanagh’s on Aughrim Street, alongside his banking job. Starting his stint at the pub in the 1980s for the family who owned it, he was dismissed in what he termed as a “heartless” and “completely unlawful” manner. The family compensated him with €25,000 for his abrupt dismissal.
Ecock pursued a career in banking in 1994, but he continued his job at the pub, primarily to provide financial support to his mother after his father’s passing. In October this year, he disclosed to the tribunal that his day job was with AIB, where he served for 28 years. However, his banking colleagues were unaware of his nocturnal barman duties, which he was dismissed from in April due to ‘cost-cutting’ measures.

Ecock, being the eldest of two children, took on the responsibility of ensuring his mother’s financial stability in her twilight years. Despite accepting a full-time position at AIB in 1994, he maintained his pub job, reducing his hours to two evenings per week only after his marriage in 2013.
“I was trying to earn as much as I could to ensure I had sufficient funds for later in life,” Ecock said. According to the information he provided to the WRC, the pub’s original owners, Noel Peacock Sr and his wife Rose Peacock, had to exit the business due to a remortgaging agreement with the Bank of Ireland. This resulted in their four children inheriting the hospitality business.
Pundit Ltd, a subsidiary of N & Peacock Ltd, which operated the pub, refuted all of Mr Ecock’s complaints. They claimed that Mr Ecock had asked Mrs Peacock to reduce his tax credits as he was not permitted to maintain a second PAYE job after joining AIB.
