I’m the Chief Strategy Officer for Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO, and here to provide the counsel and kerosene that help create new futures for client businesses and brands.

Once described by a client as “the unruly offspring of Karl Marx, Martin Luther, and Morrissey” (no, really) I’m a postgraduate of the London School of Economics with thirty-two years’ strategy experience.

I’ve enjoyed tours of duty with Lowe Howard-Spink, JWT, Leo Burnett, and most recently was Head of Planning for Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam for fourteen years.

Having lived and worked in London, New York, São Paulo, and Amsterdam, and shipped creative ideas and solutions for pretty much every market on the planet apart from North Korea I’m as globally-minded as they come.

Clients have included Allianz, Amazon Music, Beeline, booking.com, Camay, Coca-Cola, Corona, DeBeers, Electronic Arts (FIFA, Mirror’s Edge) Evian, Facebook, Facebook Reality Labs, General Electric, Grundfos, Heineken, Hennessy, Instagram, J&B, Kelloggs (Frosties, Coco Pops, All-Bran, Rice Krispies), Kinder Surprise, Lipton, Lipton Brisk, Ledger, Lloyds Bank, Lux, Lux Super Rich, Miele, Milka, Novartis, Ørsted, Ray-Ban, S7 Airlines, Samsung, Smirnoff, Sunsilk, Tommy Hilfger, The Glenlivet, Uber, United Ukrainian Ballet, and Weetabix. Phew.
