About me
As Head of Creative, I collaborate on hps group's strategic
direction and drive creative vision for all clients across an
enviable client base including the BMW Group - BMW,
Rolls-Royce, MINI and Motorrad, 3M, Mazda, Zoetis, and
McLaren. Having come up through the ranks, I accepted a
position on the board in 2010 where I've contributed to the
growth of the group over the last seven years.
Totally hands-on, with an all-channel, all-sector versatility,
I believe in creative bravery through big yet often simple
solutions. I thrive on not just creating, but inspiring work whilst
maintaining an energetic and fertile environment where ideas
are born.
From integrated product launches to lead-generating social
campaigns, sales events to B2B training solutions, regardless of
the output, my work is rooted in insight and instinct,
ultimately with audience experience and journey at the heart of
any response. A dynamic and strong presenter, I lead the creative
pitching process to existing and potential clients as well as
internally within the agency group.
Successfully building, managing and nurturing the talent of a
large team of creative directors, designers, copywriters and
artworkers in a deadline driven environment, has given me
extensive experience in team development and leading
cross-functional team collaboration. My dynamic team is
loaded with diverse personalities and exceptional skills
required to service all client requirements. I take huge pride
in the standard of output, its effectivness and profit ratio.
Linking the creative side of hps to the rest of the business is
a critical part of my role. Insight is what inspires me, so I work
closely with our specialist teams including Data Analysts and
Insight Managers so consumer truths drive our client
campaigns. Alongside a highly efficient team, I support the
overall workflow, resourcing, processes and performance of
the group.
