What people say
“An inspiring, creative, highly experienced marketing leader. I loved working with Ben at LEO - he brought energy, ideas and grounded professionalism to everything we worked on. He has an immense range, and an ability to spin and pivot fast, find new direction and lay out a plan, a particular talent that we needed at times! On top of that, he is a great communicator, and has a profound sense of knowing what good looks like. I look forward to working together again one day!”
— Andrew Joly, Head of Strategy, LEO
“Ben was brought in to consult for Bluemarlin New York, specifically to help on project and pitch work; with great results helping deliver a major new business win and taking a key role in a global campaign for a leading global beer brand.
Ben’s social media expertise was put to good use to deliver a content-rich strategy supporting our new strategic division, mettle thinking. He delivered a highly innovative and engaged contact strategy resulting in further client wins and deep connections with major influencers. His work underlies the pioneering change we are making at the agency by doing things in a new way to give our clients the strategic edge they need to thrive in today's world.
Ben's entrepreneurial spirit and drive are second to none and his ability to connect with others around him (internally and externally) are greatly valued. Commercial, creative, highly emotionally intelligent and highly recommended!”

He made such a positive influence. It was a joy to work with him.”
