Shelbourne Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Tomás Quinn as the club’s new Chief Executive Officer.

Quinn will join Shelbourne from Dublin GAA where he has been the Commercial and Marketing Director since 2013. He helped spearhead an era of remarkable commercial growth and the continued evolution of Dublin GAA off the pitch.

Quinn also brings an understanding and experience of operating in an elite level sport environment, having represented Dublin in inter-county football for over a decade and a long and decorated club career with St. Vincents GAA.

Speaking about his appointment, Tomás Quinn said: “I’m thrilled to join Shelbourne FC at such an exciting time in the club’s journey. I’m looking forward to working with the board, the staff and the fans to build on last year’s achievements and taking a leadership role in continuing to lay the foundations for many years of future success and stability. Shelbourne is a club with a proud history and strong community ethos and I’m enthused to deepen the connection between the club, its community, its partners and its growing fan base. Coming in to the club at this time in its illustrious history is a privilege and it is an immense honour to lead this Dublin institution as CEO.”

Shelbourne FC co-owner, Neil Doyle said: “We are delighted to welcome Tomás to Shelbourne FC – I know he will be central in capitalising on the club’s momentum over the coming years. His appointment will support our continued drive to elevate all aspects of the club’s performance and further strengthen our engagement with fans and the local community. Tomás understands what it means to be a football fan, a commercial leader and an elite sportsperson – a unique combination which equips him to lead the next chapter in the club’s development.”

This appointment represents a significant step for Shelbourne FC as it aims to build on the success of 2024 and lay the foundations for success both on and off the pitch this year and beyond.

Neil Doyle, Shelbourne co-owner, will continue to oversee club operations in the short term before Quinn takes up the role in early April 2025.
