Eamon McLoughlin
Eamon heads up the Football Division of PLATINUM ONE. He joined the company in 1999 following completion of his studies in UCD where he gained an MSc in Marketing Practice along with a BComm. Having captained the Irish Schools' International team, Eamon joined UCD on a soccer scholarship after turning down the opportunity to turn professional in the UK and played eircom League football for 8 years.
A FIFA Licensed Player Agent and UEFA Licensed Match Agent, his client list involves him working with some of the biggest clubs and federations in world football on a daily basis in relation to the management of their players or match schedules. Eamon funnily enough lists football as his favourite sport, loves the odd weekend down in Kinsale and is happiest when sitting bumper-to-bumper on the M50.

Johnny O'Shea
A PLATINUM ONE veteran, having been with the company since 2002, Johnny manages accounts on the Sports team as well as handling the commercial relationships of our professional rugby clients. Still playing rugby and tennis at a (very) mediocre level, although the body is carrying a few more knocks than last year.
Favourite discussion topics include whether Roger Federer is the greatest tennis player of all time and which of the Hastings brothers can sing “The Fields of Athenry” in tune.

Adam Crothers
After Adam graduated from Trinity College in 2006, he decided he needed a (well earned?) break. So he packed up his belongings and set off on a trip of discovery and debauchery around the world with some friends. On returning, he set himself the unenviable task of finding employment and thus landed on the hallowed door steps of PLATINUM ONE in January 2008 and hasn’t looked back.
Adam works in the sports division of PLATINUM ONE and is continually involved with all aspects of sport sponsorship, sport marketing and sport event creation. He lists football as his favoured sport, believes Mendoza in Argentina is his idea of paradise and loves nothing more than watching his beloved Newcastle scrape by with a 4-3 win.
