Dentsu Aegis NetworkManaging Partner
Feb. 2003 - Dec. 2018Leeds, United KingdomMediaVest Leeds → Carat → Dentsu Aegis Network
As Managing Partner, I was instrumental in the growth and
development of the award-winning media and marketing agency.
With MediaVest, we secured an affiliation with Starcom Group that
enabled us to offer clients true value and an insight into how
different media channels perform for different audiences, products
and services.
Carat emerged from this business, but with a broader remit to
redefine media, leveraging expertise in media convergence with
create better business outcomes for clients.
Eventually, the agency was sold to the global Dentsu Aegis
Network, where I spent a further two years at the forefront of
innovation in how client brands were built through our best-in-class
expertise and capabilities in media, digital and creative
communications services.
