Advertising Creative Director

I bring 23 years experience in the creative and branding industry that has seen me work at many top international networked agencies, as a brand champion for a wide range of blue chip accounts. I’ve worked on many new product launches, and been the brand guardian on everything from orange juice to cars. I penned the brand story for the world’s tallest building, reduce the number of deaths on the road caused by drunk driving, and helped one agency remain at the top of Campaign magazine’s business performance table for a whole year after winning 12 out of 13 pitches totalling £55 million. I have the ability to reach key audiences through clear strategic thinking, but also to remember what it is to be a consumer. As a copywriter, my work has been used in e-mail marketing, online and offline advertisements, brochures, taglines, and Web sites. I have strong client facing skills with a straight talking style that resonates with even the highest members of the client team. I have a fair and approachable management style, but able to make the tough decisions when needed. I’m a good listener with a solid work ethic and a genuine desire to make a real difference to an agency. My aim is always to meet deadline and raise the creative bar, but also help establish a creative and efficient working environment, because it has to be about enjoying the journey as well
