Granite Digital expands in the U.S. to support global clients and creates 50 new jobs

Granite Digital, Ireland’s largest digital agency and a key player in the country’s tech ecosystem, is strategically expanding into the U.S. market. This move aligns with Ireland’s reputation as a leading European tech hub and responds to the increasing demand for innovative digital solutions and award-winning client service from Granite Digital’s growing Fortune 500 client base.

The investment follows Granite’s acquisition of the majority stake in the digital division of New York-based creative agency LCM247, founded by Chief Creative Officer, Patrick Heaphy.

Renowned for blending cutting-edge technology with Ireland’s rich storytelling tradition, Granite Digital’s U.S. expansion will create over 50 new jobs in New York. The positions will include Software Engineering, Data Science (Artificial Intelligence), DevOps, Digital Advisory, Analytics, CRO and Customer Experience (CX).

“This strategic investment enables us to fill a crucial gap in the market, particularly in B2B enterprise support,” said Robert Carpenter, Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Granite Digital. “Our global clients are asking us to expand our presence into the U.S. This expanded presence in New York allows us to better serve our clients and expand our offerings, enabling U.S.-based and global businesses to leverage the best European digital marketing, security, and compliance standards. As always, we will continue to deliver award-winning client services.”

The agency’s client list includes blue-chip companies such as Red Bull, Intel, Pepsi, Medtronic and Audi, as well as many B2B brands like CBRE, Workvivo (a Zoom company), Concentrix, Cyara and Google Cloud.

Granite Digital has made two key appointments to strengthen its U.S. operations further.

Margaret Molloy, a veteran marketer and founder of Molloy Marketing Advisory, will be a board advisor. Margaret’s career spans several prominent roles, including a decade-long tenure at Siegel+Gale, where she spearheaded global marketing.

“I am thrilled to see Granite Digital bring its digital excellence and award-winning client service to U.S.-based brands,” Molloy said.“Leveraging skilled global talent to drive growth can be a game-changer for brands. Granite Digital’s strategy to integrate top global talent with local presence in Ireland and New York will appeal to brand leaders looking for top-tier digital solutions, engaging storytelling, and commitment to client service.”

Oran Bambrick has been appointed as Vice President of U.S. Operations. Oran will leverage his expertise in digital operations and market expansion as Granite continues to support clients in the U.S.
