Carol Gaffney
Brand Positioning Strategist
Carol leads the strategic work at Gaffney & Co.
Her background spans years working inside multinational organisations, followed by leadership experience in HR and employer brand. With formal qualifications in both HR and marketing, including CIPD, she brings a perspective that most brand providers do not have.
That combination matters.
She understands not only how an organisation needs to be positioned externally, but also how leadership, culture, communication, and recruitment shape that perception from within. That is why the work goes deeper than messaging and photography.
She has worked across enterprise organisations in Ireland and internationally, and brings that commercial and organisational lens to every engagement.
Her approach to employer brand is strategic, not aesthetic. She starts with the gap between internal reality and external perception, then builds the clarity, narrative, and visual direction to close it.
