CREEDONS Business Support Services was formed with the sole objective of providing real value to businesses in Ireland by proactively helping its clients achieve their full potential.
Gerard Creedon, our founder is an economics graduate with a postgraduate diploma in accounting and business information systems from U.C.C. He has an advanced diploma in personal and executive coaching. Gerard has completed various training courses in brand marketing, management, sales, safety management, security and CRM.
Gerard has worked in a number of different industries from energy to food to aviation. He has worked for companies in Ireland and South Africa and all of the companies he worked with had a wide array of national and international clients.
His career started in sales management with Easi Gas in South Africa where he implemented a loyalty scheme for industrial gas customers before returning to Ireland.
He worked with Dairygold Food Products on a new product before taking on the role of Brand Marketing Manager where he successfully managed 3 of Irelands TOP 50 grocery brands with a marketing budget in excess of €2 million.
Over 7 years later he was approached by Lites Marketing Group and appointed Regional Manager for Munster. His task was to establish and manage the Munster operation which had over 500 field staff, promotional and merchandising staff active at any one time. He worked directly with clients such as Guinness and Eircom before spending the following 10 years in the aviation industry.
Gerard was appointed Commercial Director of Gaelic Helicopters before taking over as joint owner and Managing Director of Gaelic Helicopters which was one of the leading licensed helicopter charter companies in Ireland.
Having sold Gaelic Helicopters, Gerard identified a gap in the market for a practical business support service for smaller businesses and so he established CREEDONS Business Support Services. Gerard is now utilising his experience to offer real, tangible and affordable support to his clients.
Some of the clients that Gerard worked directly with in the aviation business are as follows:
