Head of Creative

An experienced creative leader with over 19 years' experience across brand, digital and integrated campaigns, working in both agency and in-house environments. They combine big-picture creative thinking with a genuine love of the craft and are happiest in roles where they can shape the creative direction while still getting involved in the work. Their experience spans brand, motion, UX/UI and digital, with a strong track record of building talented teams, raising creative standards and delivering work that connects with audiences and supports wider business goals.

• Led and developed multidisciplinary creative teams across brand, motion, UX/UI and digital, helping people grow while continually raising the standard of the work.
• Directed major campaigns and digital launches across automotive, government and consumer brands, from early concepts through to final delivery.
• Championed the adoption of generative AI within creative teams, including developing workflows and supporting responsible and ethical use.
• Strong client-facing experience, building trusted relationships and helping turn briefs into more ambitious, strategically focused creative work.
• Passionate about creating inclusive, supportive creative cultures, including championing neurodiversity and new ways of working.

They bring a thoughtful, collaborative leadership style and clearly care about both the quality of the work and the people producing it. While comfortable setting the creative vision and leading at a senior level, they're not someone who wants to become completely removed from the craft. They enjoy developing ideas, challenging thinking and helping teams produce work they're genuinely proud of. 

They're particularly drawn to ambitious brands and businesses where creativity is valued and there's room to keep pushing things forward.
