Executive Creative Director
London, Großbritannien
October 2013 - Derzeit hier (10 Jahre 5 Monate)
Remit: transform a deeply traditional activation focused agency into a brand focused multi-channel one.

In two years, I have taken TMS into new territory:

• Integrated advertising for McDonald’s and Carlsberg.

• From a standing start, took TMS into content and social.

• Appointed Carlsberg’s social media agency.

• Became the first agency to place McDonald’s UK on Twitter.

• Pitched and won Sainsbury’s creating the World Cup Come Together campaign.

• Pitched and won a roster place for Red Bull social media.

TMS is now an award winning agency (7 awards, 4 finalists). On Carlsberg, eConsultancy said, “Probably the best content strategy in 2015”.

Reshaped TMS culture and processes to focus on insight driven channel neutral brand centric campaigns, which has taken TMS away from its activation heritage into a broader brand and platform idea agency.

Restructured the 60 strong creative department to support the above approach including the creation of the award winning content and social media 'Newsroom'.

Executive Creative Director
Digitas
January 2009 - September 2013 (4 Jahre 8 Monate)
I turned the work at Digitas London around. How? By getting close to and shaping brand thinking with both client and agency partners across all accounts. Not always the easiest task however this approach ensures you best represent the audiences to whom brands are trying to be relevant, especially in this era of transparency and relationships with brands that have a 24 hour voice. Out of that pops opportunity, then the iconic pieces of work which in turn act as a catalyst to accelerate cultural change and unravel further opportunity. The approach seemed to have worked.
