Mammoth was also named “UK Agency of the Month” in November by Creative Brief, an outstanding accolade from one of the UK’s largest marketing portals.

In its 20th year and with clients as diverse as Ed Sheeran and Rory McIlroy alongside large corporates like Bank of Ireland, Queen’s University, ICON, and the hugely prestigious branding project for the Rugby League World Cup 2021 – Mammoth expect further strong growth in 2021.

Co-founder Paul Martin explained: “We won these contracts due to the two areas where Mammoth specialize: brand re-invention and digital transformation.

“Due to Covid clients are having to dramatically re-invent and reposition their business offering very rapidly for this new world - and our large team across brand/digital/social/video/and analytics are uniquely placed to take these campaigns to market through social media and advertising campaigns – helped by a recent investment in a new purpose built Video & Content Studio, with an ‘infinity curve’ wall and portable kitchen for food shoots at our new flagship HQ in Royal Avenue.”

We are now urgently looking for quality people keen to develop their careers, with the opportunity to work on exciting projects.”
