Grant Thornton Creative DesignPROFESSIONAL INDUSTRY - Sept 2023 to Present

I have been active as the sole Graphic Designer at Grant Thornton Ireland since September 2023. Below you will find various projects and campaigns I’ve had been fortunate to develop or be a part of.


US College Football Sponsorship 2024


Grant Thornton act as one of the top sponsors for the annual US Football College Classic that takes place in the Aviva Stadium every August. My contribution to the sponsorship was to create the customised visual identity from the Grant Thornton perspective, which would then be utilised across Invitations, Social Graphics, Digital Banners, and Itineraries. 


MOODBOARD


The look and feel of the identity was established from current sports graphics that are developed by in-house designer for college teams. We wanted to develop a gritty, high-contrast approach that used motion and action through imagery for a captivating look.

US College Football Sponsorship 2025


In 2025, I had the opportunity to work on Grant Thornton’s College Football Classic branding again, as part of its sponsorship with the Aer Lingus College Football Classic. This time, we wanted use the previous years visual style as a starting point, and then to taper back the gritty, decayed effect slightly. Still keep an exciting sport related visual identity alive, but more aligned with Grant Thornton’s standard identity. Below you will see updated social graphics and physical decals that were created for the 2025 event.
