Branding

Branding, including merchandise, logos and templates

AMBS’ identity is not just a badge, it’s the tone of voice, logo, colours, typefaces and all the other elements that work together to become a visual representation of what we stand for: Original Thinking Applied.

It’s also a visual trigger that can reinforce feelings about the School. By helping to manage the School’s identity, you will ultimately be helping to manage our reputation.

Please contact Neil Horne for templates which include the AMBS logo.

Pronouns
As another step towards full inclusivity at the University, we encourage you to include your preferred gender pronoun on your email signature. 

Merchandise
As of April 2025, we are pleased to offer a new range of merchandise for staff to order quickly and easily for events, conferences, and delegates.
 
How to order 

  1. Visit our merchandise landing page to browse the range along with the price list and lead times. Please note the prices are excluding delivery costs.
  2. Contact our dedicated account manager, Katie (katiee@infinityinc.co.uk), indicating which products you’d like to order and quantities.
  3. Katie and her team will provide a quotation for you based on what you have requested.
  4. Once you have checked and approved the quotation, your order will be sent to your preferred address.

We recommend you order from our range of approved items, however, if there is a specific product that is not available within the pre-approved range, you can work directly with Infinity who will advise on available products and design. Please bear in mind that any new products will need to be approved by the AMBS Marketing and Communications team to ensure the designs comply with our brand guidelines.
 
Gift Shop
To get items quickly and in small quantities, you can visit the UoM Gift Shop (at University Place) which stocks a selection of AMBS umbrellas, water bottles, notebooks, and pens.

Business cards
To order business cards, letter headed paper and compliments slips, please access My Manchester.

For further information on fonts, imagery and photography and the School's brand guidelines, please contact the Marketing and Communications team, who are based in room 1.003 or can be reached at ambscomms@manchester.ac.uk
